An Army At Dawn
This was a meticulously research book that was a sheer pleasure to read. Atkinson's command of facts and writing skill are unmatched.

Great book about WWII
There are many books about World War 2 in Europe. This book, the first in a trilogy, begins with the very start of US involvement in the war and tells the story of the war in North Africa which preceded the fighting in Europe. The best thing about this book is that it tells about the people who were involved, both leaders and soldiers, as well as the battles themselves. I enjoyed this book immensely
