I just read Ralph Peters article on the Mexican Revolution in the Jan 2011 issue.. At the end of the article, you suggested I come to your website for a list of must-read books.
I visited and found nothing obvious in terms of a link.
I’ll try searching a couple more times,
John,
Thanks for stopping by. The recommended reading list has now been published: http://armchairgeneral.com/the-mexican-revolution-ralph-peters-recommended-reading-list.htm
Recently read “Crisis Watch – The Last (Mini) Empire—Ralph Peters on why Pakistan is such a problem”.
Pakistan is a regular subject of discussion on the ACG fourms and very misunderstood. This article should be required reading for anyone interested in the many problems plaguing South Asia.

When will the next issue come out? Will I get it in January? Thanks.
The March 2011 issue will hit newsstands in January, D. J. Subscriptions take about 4–6 weeks to process, so whether or not you’ll receive this issue in the mail depends on when you subscribed. Thanks for subscribing; wait till you see some of the articles we have scheduled for 2011!
