I was skeptical of another political book on Iran Contra, but this went back to the roots at the Naval Academy for the five subjects: McCain, Poindexter, McFarland, Webb, and Ollie. The fact that it was written in 1994 cuts the history off a bit short (at least for McCain and Webb), but overall an outstanding personality driven analysis and recounting of events!
