Average Rating:
 Rating: - Great insight into WW2Col. North does a great job of intermixing strait facts of history with the first hand accounts of the men and women who were there. It really helps bring the historical facts to life. I think this should be required reading for WW2 history classes, and is great reading for any history buff. Added bonus- it comes with a great DVD. Rating: - A Must Read For WWII HistoryThis book does, for the war in Europe, what 'War Stories II' did for the war in the Pacific. It is an excellent,complete account.

As with the other books in this series, this book presents a rather eclectic collection ...

Why do I want the book read? Well, there is a whole rising generation for whom WWII is so old and far gone that they really know NOTHING about it. This book is a fine quick overview and quite readable. It doesn't get bogged down in the details of tactics, strategies, or troop movements. What it does offer that is very inviting is what makes the TV show a success and is suggested by the title. ... Read More |
