Everything We Had (aff) brings together the oral histories of 33 men who completed tours of duty‚ from ordinary private-level soldiers to commanding officers. It is this variety and personal focus from man to man which makes this work so readable – each soldier has a different story to tell and the experiences one man had varies wildly from the next.

One Man‚ One Vote? Joseph Farkas thinks that every vote cast should equal every other vote. He feels that many people are voting without knowing why they are voting for a certain person or why they aren’t voting for another.
