This web-page provides a Army National Guard Officer reading list.  Readers are leaders and leaders are readers.  That's a fact.  The best way to improve your leadership skills is to read books.  Even if you don't enjoy reading, you can order the audio version on cd or MP3 format.

Listed below are some of my favorites.  Not all of them are military themed, but they will still help you be a better leader, mentor and company commander.  Simply click on the book if you would like to purchase it from Amazon right now.
