This is a book I would recommend for anyone to read. By reading the book you get a personal perspective on the ones affected by the bombing. This edition has an additional chapter, written years later, where the author gives an update on the people in the book. Very good read! | 4.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
For many years I've voraciously consumed anything on the subject of World War II that I could get my hands on. "Flags Of Our Fathers" is, hands down, my favorite.

This book is very simple, yet gorgeous. It is mainly just hand-drawn pictures of a variety of swords, in different categories. I bought this book for my almost 4-year old son who is obsessed with swords, and we love it. | 5.0 / 5.0

Price: $10.87
Customer Review:
This is a must read as there are no more World War I veterans to tell the tale. This was "the war to end all wars," but, unfortunately, it was not. When this war was fought it didn't have a roman numeral. The second World War caused that affixing of the number. For a first person account of World... more info | 4.5 / 5.0
