Band of brothers / Stephen E. Ambrose


Easy Company, 506th Airborne Division, U.S. Army, was one of the best rifle companies in the U.S. army. From Normandy to Hitler's Eagle's Nest, they fought hard against hunger, freezing weather and heavy casualties. Ambrose writes directly; his language isn't too flowery, which is appropriate, considering the horror of war. This book is a collection of the autobiographical stories of officers and soldiers from Easy company.  I really enjoyed reading it."From this day to the end of the world...We in it shall be remembered... We band of brothers."-William Shakespeare. Let us remember those who fought hard for the world's peace.

Who would enjoy this? People like to read about the history of WWII.
