A bit more insight into a fine man and his "brothers"... November 4, 2007 nylcajelyk (New Brunswick, Canada) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
After reading Ambrose's Band of Brothers (and seeing the miniseries), I could not help picking up this book in hopes of learning some more about Dick Winters, the man. To watch the portrayal of this man on screen left me with the impression that he was a "larger than life" character (almost thinking he had to be fictional to some degree). Upon finishing his book for the first time, I was left with a better idea of just why he seemed to be such an exemplary figure. He is. From his humility, his respect for his fellow soldiers (both officers and enlisted men), and his obvious love for his comrades both alive and passed, his "memoir" truly exposes just those qualities, things that make him a "hero" in many peoples' eyes, both young and old. br /Without exception, for any who are looking for some honest insight into what makes Dick Winters the man that he is, this is a "must read". Truly a fine book.
