Band of Brothers


This book will not have the same effect on everyone. This is only for those who really love to read about World War II.

"Band of Brothers" is an exacting work, a fairly accurate piece of military history. It chronicles the journey of Easy Company, from their jump training in Toccoa in 1942, to their actual jump on D-Day, and all the way to Hitler's Eagle's Nest.

Ambrose writes with the serious tone of historical text, but it is the narrative that will hold you spellbound, as he chronicles Easy Company's European campaign in great detail. Ambrose also makes sure that each of the men are fleshed out, giving us a virtual tour of the time and setting of each and every battle Easy fought in.

Again, not everyone will love this book. It's just that I'm a sucker for World War II, especially the European front.


Rating: Five stars.
