Is it any good. And whats the deal with the two different covers.

Seriously? Look Robbie, the one for £6.99 (not 5) is sold by Play.com themselves. The one for £9.99 (not 10) is sold by a Play.com trader called JDBOOKS.

Second that, an excellent book. As is Beevor's book on the fall of Berlin. While the author covers the big picture well, he also looks at the impact of the conflict from the perspective of the individuals involved.

I've started dropping hints early for Christmas for his recent book on D-Day, in which he debunks a few myths about the invasion and its importance in the greater scheme of things and also gives credit (long overdue) to the role of British and Canadian troops. He also mentions the large numbers of French civilians who were killed by Allied bombing and shelling, whom history seems to have forgotten.

I think this is going to have to go on the Christmas wishlist.

[RobbieOR]

I'm reading Downfall now. So I thought I'd get Stalingrad for when Im finished.

[Edward.]

Well worth a read, bought it in a second hand book shop for 50p.

[WaltonRed]

Finished it today, its immense and would make a superb film aslong as it used German and Russian actors. It could be fucking epic.

 

Humans can be so cruel to each other its untrue.

 

I'm getting his Berlin book now.

 

"Do you see that?!...thats what we are going to do to Berlin!"
