Excellent book and story. I hope that Senator Scott writes more and speaks more. I think God has greater things for Senator Scott. A great read that will lift you up.

Excellent book

Mrs. MacCallum does a great job telling story about her relative and his sacrifice. She also gives you a great overall view of the Pacific theater of war. I hope this inspires you to read a more in depth book on the Pacific theater of war but this gives you a good start with a very personal story.

What a life lived.

Revisado: 02-26-20

Mr Gaddis does an excellent job telling George F. Kennan's story and his importance for history. Kennan's impact on the world is probably not know to most Americans and that is a tragedy. Also I think some of Kennan's analysis of the Soviet Union still holds true to current Russia which makes this a must read for any non Russian wanting to understand Russia.

Most interesting to me was Kennan's thoughts on Kennedy and Reagan and his dealings with those two administrations.

Take the time and listen or read this book. You will also get a little Kennan's poetry along the way.

Great Man but only a good book

Revisado: 01-30-20

Mr Roll provides you a lot of good information on General Marshall and I would recommend people read or listen to this book but also read or listen to others on the subject. This could have been a great book, but Mr Roll does virtue signaling throughout the book. He does this by opining on matters where he has no documentation but wants to imply or infer his opinion on the matter. He also brings up President Trump at least 4 times in the book on General Marshall and all seemed to take away from the story and didn’t add to the book. The first time was probably the worst because he brought up Trump Tweets as a comparison to Senator Joe McCarthy use of speeches it just seems to be a blatant attempt to link Trump to McCarthy and it really takes away from the book. The reader was excellent and really made the book a pleasure to listen too.

Good book with a lot of information

Revisado: 01-05-20

It took a while to get into the book and I really wish that it would have had a different reader for the book. This book also needs a PDF with maps and other documents.

Excellent book a must read for every American

Mr McCarthy does a great job of laying out all the facts and presenting them in a manner that makes this a very read able book. I would have preferred a different reader though but he grew on me.

Good overview of the battle

Revisado: 11-13-19

This was a good starter book for the battle of Stalingrad but I would have liked more details. Love George Guidall as a reader but the quality of this recording wasn't as good as most audible books.

Excellent book with a very different point of view

Revisado: 11-13-19

Hastings does a great job taking you through the years from so many different POV's. Most WWII books take you through the battles view of the Generals Hastings gives you POVs of civilians, mothers of soldiers, wives and the list goes on. He really lays out the horrors of this war and their impacts on the combatants and the civilians as the war progressed. Hastings like all authors has a bias but his is very slight in my opinion. I highly recommend reading this book before reading other WWII books.

Great book and series!

Revisado: 10-28-19

Rick Atkinson did an amazing job with these three books. He provides the reader with a lot of information but doesn't overload you with that information. I wish that all three books would have kept George Guidall as the reader. Also it would have been very nice to have PDF's for all the maps and photos for each of the books for you to use to better understand the battles.
