bookshelves: read-but-not-owned, ww2-related

An 8 hour and 45 minute unabridged audiobook.

The author really knows how to craft a story and keep the readers attention. Just random tidbits of personal information such as what a particular general had for breakfast before reviewing battle reports. It reads as a novel while covering actual historical events. I really liked it.

Theresa I love this book. Excellent movie, too!

I enjoyed two movies based on his books- The Longest Day, and A Bridge Too Far. Im happy to report that the movies closely followed the books and the books are great as well.


Theresa Nice! I have yet to watch A Bridge Too Far, though I need to!
