But "Speaker" as military strategy? There wasn't any military period. Did we read the same book?
I'm not kidding. Speaker for the dead (or was it Enders game? can't recall exactly) is on a list of books recommended for professional military reading within the USMC due to its strategic warfare conceptual discussion. (at least it was about 3 years ago last time I saw the list)

Edit: Out of curiosity I looked it up: Enders Game and Starship troopers are both still on the list. The former for training concepts, the latter for its tactical concepts. They are considered easy / light reading on the subjects.
