101st Airborne

Based on a previous purchase American Soldier, I have taken a chance and bought 101st Airborne as a gift for the same person (Teenage Grandson)it was very well received.
On another note I disscussed with familiy and churchmembers the excellent selections from Amazon and the excellent custumer service, personally I no longer belong to a booklub and will not set foot in a bookstore.
Go Amazon, we appreciate you and expecting the same customer service in
2008
Sincerely, a satisfied customer

A First ClassHistorical work by Mr Bando !

Like many here I was eagerly awaiting this new work by Mark Bando, who I consider the finest World War II airborne historian today. The five star rating here does not do this book justice, once again Mark Bando has give us a tremendous historical work on the famed "Screaming Eagles of The 101st Airborne Division " and its brillant record in combat in Europe from D-Day to the final surrender of Nazi Germany. You get a great colleciton of vintage photographs from the authors massive collection he has amassed over the last 30 plus years of research on the 101st. Many coming from the actual veterans themseleves. The author has spent the last 30 plus years going to 101st reunions and interviewing the men and collecting their rare stories for you the reader . In addition he has spent many years retracing the 101st Divisions battles in Europe and still today conducts tours from Normandy , The Bulge and the many places where the Screaming Eagles made history. This is one book for sure that any student of World War II needs in his or her collection. One can read the other fine reviews here.... I share their thoughts and this book by Mr Bando is one we should be greatful for. This book captures the amazing combat record of this outstanding division ! Well done sir !!!!!!!!!

A must have for any WWII or 101st Airborne fan

This is a fantastic book to be able to read and look at images never seen before in other WWII historical books. It is very interesting to read and be able to share with friends or family memebers who are interested in WWII history as well. Truly a beautiful book.

Outstanding WWII Airborne History

I think we are all lucky Mark Bando started interviewing World War II 101st Airborne veterans many years ago or most of these wonderful stories would have been lost forever. Several people have written great reviews to tell folks all about this book. I'm not a good writter so my review will be brief. Mark has more one on one interviews with WWII paratroopers from the 101st than anyone. I have 2 of every book he has written because the information is first hand from the veterans and can't be found anywhere else. Mark has inserted overviews of each battle so the average reader will still know where the action happened with out getting lost in each campaign. I can't recommend this book enough, there are great photographs, most have never been published. If you enjoy WWII actual accounts and history of the 101st Division, do yourself a favor and order this, you can even get it for free shipping from Amazon. What a great deal.

101st Airborne: The Screaming Eagles in World War II

The book is the very complete history of the 101st Airborne Division in World War II. It contains many life stories of WW II veterans and many pictures in black and white, some of them have not been published before.
Mark Bando in this new book has done an excellent work of relating the war actions of the 101st Airborne Division in Normandy, Holland, Belgium and Germany. I can strongly recommend this book to all those who are interested in the history of the Second World War in Europe.

reviews: page 1, 2, 3, 4
