An excellent author on the two world wars is Paul Fussell. Keegan's best book is his first, The Face of Battle.

Ambrose is the so-called historian (now proven a plagarist) who wrote the book upon which Private Ryan was based; he all but ignores the role of the Brits, Canadians, Scots, and treats the invasion as if it were solely an American show. To say that the American's fed the Brits during the dark days of the war has truth, but a more accurate interpretation is that the Brits FOUGHT for us and we fed them.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>


I like what this guy said about how they FOUGHT and the americans fed em, I like that a lot actually!
