This is a great book for any history nerds out there who enjoy reading a good book now and then. This book isn’t your average history book either it is like reading a story; yes it doesn’t have a main character but still. I always enjoyed the way he would describe how the common soldier would view the war or conditions.It also describes the people and what looked like, what they were like. This isn't your school history text book that will put you to sleep at night, this book is actually entertaining not boring at all. The book is very dense it will take some time to read.
