Book Review: Great Book
Summary: 5 Stars
Brothers In Battle, Best of Friends
This book is a must for anyone intersted in WWII. Just two Stand Up GI's Bill Guarnere and Babe Heffron telling their factual stories as it was from their upbringing in the depression, to the front lines in Normandy, Holland, the Bulge, and the end of the war in Europe. If you want to know how it was, with no fluff, then this is a great read and,
YOU ARE THERE!!
Book Review: Another piece of "Band of Brothers" puzzle
Summary: 5 Stars
The biography of Babe and Wild Bill fills in the picture of the heroes shown in the "Band of Brothers".
Having read Malarkey's, Compton's, and Winter's, I find it fascinating how each remembers the popular events differently.
Their life stories just add to the whole picture. They help to fill in the picture from the enlisted man's view.
The more you read about these ordinary men doing extraordinary tasks, you can not help come away with a sense of gratitude for their sacrifice.
Book Review: They speak to you from the pages
Summary: 5 Stars
Bill and Babe now have voices that will always be there for us to hear anytime we pick up this book. Their joy of life, depth of humility, and tough courage would be an inspiration for any life, but their lives were truly extraordinary. The pages speak in their Philly accents and give us a chilling glimpse into some of the most courageous and horrific battles of the European theatre. Thanks, Robyn Post, for this great first-hand account!Book Review: Brothers in Battle, Best of Friends
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was outstanding! It is a true story of two friends; grew up close together but never knew each other. Went through basic training, then assigned to the same platoon in the 101st Airborne during World War II. Their friendship was so strong that when one was seriously wounded, the other went to save him and both suffered life-threatening wounds. A must read for anyone who wants to understand commeradrie and brotherhood.Book Review: Thoroughly enjoyable read
Summary: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed this book. Have read all the other BOB`s related books and this is a great and worthy addition.
Great insight into Wild Bill and Babe. Great characters, great fun.
At the current price you cannot loose however I would spend a lot more because it is worth it.
Looking forward now to reading Don Malarkey and Buck Comptons personal accounts due for release this month.
