Bull's Eye: The Assassination and Life of Supergun Inventor Gerald Bull

Rating:
Summary: Very Interesting
Review: This was a very good book. I bought the book wanting to learn more about Iraq, but got a lot more. The details of the efforts to launch satellites using a super gun was very interesting and the details of artillery gave me insights I did not have before. I was very interested in the contacts he made, South Africa, Israel, China and Iraq and the fact that the US for the most part created him. There are a good amount of facts that seem well put together. The writing is good and there are a good amount of pictures that really help tell the story. I think it is interesting to read this book and some of the other books about the Iraq process to gather WMD arms - the two would have fit together perfectly. I would have liked the author to focus a bit more on what the purposes the Iraq's were going o use the super gun for. If you are interested in these topics then this book is well worth the time.
