from Vintage
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
Wow... I guess, I had heard some of this info in countless documentaries, but with all of the press about the west, I didn't realize how much carnage and turmoil was going on in the Eastern front. For instance that more Russians died conquering East Prussia than the total amount of Americans lost in... more info

3.Overlord: D-Day and the Battle for NormandyOverlord: D-Day and the Battle for Normandy
from Vintage
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
To start I should clarify two things, firstly, I like Max Hastings as a writer and historian. I like the way he incorporates the entire spectrum of participants in the story which takes the 'grind' out of reading an historic account. He also doesn't 'romanticise' topics like D Day which, of recent... more info

4.Warriors: Portraits from the BattlefieldWarriors: Portraits from the Battlefield
from Vintage
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
With his customary eloquence, Max Hastings prevents the unvarnished tales of war "heroes" from many countries over the past two centuries. A genius for creating a lively scene, he lends verve and striking detail to his narratives and does not spare us the warts of these sometimes deeply unpleasant... more info

Sir Max Hastings and Simon Jenkins have written a masterpiece in "Battle for the Falklands". In a single volume, between the two authors they provide a comprehensive look at the diplomatic efforts and an unparalleled record of the events on the ground.

7.A Stranger to Myself: The Inhumanity of War: Russia, 1941-1944A Stranger to Myself: The Inhumanity of War: Russia, 1941-1944
from Farrar, Straus and Giroux

Customer Review:
Of all the countless memiors written by German veterans of the Eastern Front, A STRANGER TO MYSELF is the most unique I've yet read. It distinguishes itself from the "field gray flood" of nonfiction books on the Russian campaign in two very distinct ways: first, the author, Willy Peter Reese, did... more info

8.OverlordOverlord
from Touchstone
Price: $20.66

Customer Review:
Americans who read this study of the Normandy invasion will be astonished to learn how little U.S. troops contributed to Overlord, and how clueless American generals, soldiers, and airmen were. Hastings makes it clear that Montgomery was a fatuous braggart, and that just about all his initiatives... more info
