Request: Commandants Reading List info


if jsut finished reading "the village" by Bing West (will do a post on it later) up the top of it is has *Commandants Reading List* since i thoroughly enjoyed this book i was thinking i might try to read my way though this commandant dudes reading list!!! does anyone know where i might find a copy of the books on the list?


If I am asked what we are fighting for, I can reply in two sentences. In the first place, to fulfil a solemn international obligation . . . an obligation of honor which no self-respecting man could possibly have repudiated. I say, secondly, we are fighting to vindicate the principle that small nationalities are not to be crushed in defiance of international good faith at the arbitrary will of a strong and overmastering Power.
