Book Reviews of The War: An Intimate History, 1941-1945

Book Review: Well done! One of the best on war
Summary: 5 Stars

This is one of the best books on the WWII. I love it. It's stripped off the hollyweirdish heroics and thats why this is great. It's real and sticks well. I can't get enough of it. The War and the companion book do make me appreciate the United States and its people's sacrifices during the war. This is a great collection!
