Five StarsBy John NilesExcellent book; well written and thoroughly documented.0 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Not worthy of a truly great man who is arguably the pre-eminent American soldier of the twentieth century.By Myshkin87I was excited to read this book; but was quite disappointed to find a significant factual error early on in it. The author says MBR visited the CPs of the 101st AB and 82d AB at Eindhoven; where both divisions dropped in Holland and where the British 1st AB was destroyed. In fact; only the 101st dropped at Eindhoven. The 82d dropped at Nijmegen and the British 1st dropped at Arnhem (the famous "bridge too far.") This section obviously referred to Operation Market-Garden. While this book is not primarily concerned with WWII; but the Korean War; such an error can't be attributed to poor editing. It is indicative of carelessness on the part of the author's research; and puts the credibility of the entire work into question for me. In fairness; at this point I decided to put the book down and subsequently; never finished it. So; I didn't read the whole book. However; IMHO; this sort of gross factual error is inexcusable by an award-winning official US Army historian.
