Rsole, you would not be able to find better history books.
You would find no history book that disagrees.

Fred, the bit of the quote that Rag tried to conceal,
"Yet Haig's great virtues - gritty determination and a refusal to indulge in melodramatics - were and are precisely the qualities necessary in a general. This is true even if we acknowledge..."

More quotes,

"His dedicated professionalism preceding the Great War and his unpaid devotion to the welfare of ex-servicemen afterwards are both now largely forgotten."

"Haig was a good soldier because he assiduously devoted himself to improving the professional competence of an army which, when he joined it, had been guided by a spirit of corrosive amateurism."

"The popular view of Haig is still irredeemably-and mistakenly- negative.

" It is irrational to criticise him for being incapable of bringing that conflict to a swifter ending, for that was beyond the capacity of any individual."
