Book Reviews of Heroes of WW II

Book Review: "No Greater Love. . ."
Summary: 5 Stars

Murphy has written not only a book about individual Medal of Honor winners of the Second World War, but he's produced a well-written and concise history of America's involvement in the Second World War which interweaves those stories into the context of the bigger picture of the global conflict. Excellent, easy reading that is both inspiring and exciting. The true stories about some of the men who earned our nation's highest decoration for valor in the face of the enemy will amaze by how far some soldiers will go to protect the lives of their comrades.
