March or Die: A New History of the French Foreign… di Tony Geraghty

I quit reading in disgust of the actions of the French governments, their incompetence, and lack of concern for their military. Story might have been OK, but I couldn't stomach reading it past the first 90 pages.

Brixmis: The Untold Exploits of Britain's Most… di Tony Geraghty

Brillant account of little known part of the Cold War. Under post World War 2 treaties both the UK, France and the US were allowed to send military teams into East Germany to monitor military preparations. This tells their story and the obstacles the Soviets placed in their path to prevent them. I would love to find and english language book on Soxmix, their Soviet counterpart who were allowed to travel across West Germany under the same agreements.
