Review
This sassy, downright memoir... is an inside view of a formidable institution, told with a tough wit and a complete lack of self-justification or pity. (SUNDAY TIMES)
brisk, feisty... lively war diary. (SCOTSMAN)
The best insider account of military life since Anthony Swofford gave us Jarhead... you can't help but like Williams. She's sharp, witty direct, confiding and appealingly honest about her failings. (EVENING STANDARD)
'an unafraid critic of the inefficiencies of her commanding officers and the military in general.. (WATERSTONE'S BOOKS QUARTERLY)
wonderfully frank and insightful (SUNDAY TELEGRAPH)
Williams's recollections are interesting for what they reveal of the embarrassments of being a woman in a man's world, where that manliness is asserted by constant, barely legal, misogyny... Williams's book poses the question: can an army, if it is to fight, ever be truly civilised? (FINANCIAL TIMES)
Williams... is reflective enough to demonstrate the failings of the American military in Iraq, and the brutalizing injustice that female soldiers experience from their own army. (TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT)
illuminating... whether you are a man or a woman, a hawk or a dove, Love My Rifle More than You' is a fascinating book. (THE SKINNY)
Book Description
