Donald Rumsfeld & Bing West, on Midrats

This Sunday, 10 April from 5-6pm EST is a must-listen Midrats.

For anyone interested in history, politics, or national security - there are two books that should be on your short list for 2011. EagleOne and I will have both of them this Sunday.

Our guest for the first half hour will be former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld to discuss his book, Known and Unknown: A Memoir.

Rummy will be a hard act to follow - but our second guest is one of the few who can more than hold their own.

For the second half of the hour we will have one of the best authors writing the history of the Long War, former infantry and Marine Force Recon Officer, Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs in the Reagan administration, and now president of the GAMA Corporation, Bing West.

He will be here to discuss his latest book, The Wrong War: Grit, Strategy, and the Way Out of Afghanistan.

Do not miss this opportunity.

Join us live if you can and join in with the usual suspects in the chat room, but remember, if you miss the show or want to catch up on the ones you've missed - you can always reach the archives at blogtalkradio - or set yourself to get the podcast on iTunes.
