Not Mentioned in Despatches...The History and Mythology of the Battle of Goose Green (1995) By Spencer Fitz-Gibbon
 
The British success at Goose Green was seen as a legendary victory, but by using interviews with participants in the battle, this book argues that it actually highlighted serious flaws in the British army's command culture. The author's knowledge of recent attempts to reform the army's command system and of the ongoing tactics debate allows him to elucidate the two basic models of command system identifiable in the Falklands War. This book is the basis of the first of Channel 4's 1996 series of documentaries, Secret History, entitled The Battle of Goose Green.
