[Blumenson] has written extensively about the war since it ended,
in his own delightful cadence, charming in its exuberance,
reinforced by his masterful research. Here is a compendium of some
of his best. In it, he has insights that make you gasp. No one can
agree with all his judgements and interpretations, but every reader
will respond to them. Recommended without reservation.--Stephen E.
Ambrose, Author of "D-Day June 6, 1944: The Climactic Battle of
World War II", "The Good Fight: How World War II Was Won", and
A sweeping retrospective by the dean of American World War II
historians.--Earl Ziemke, Author of "Moscow to Stalingrad",
"Stalingrad to Berlin", and "The German Northern Theater of
Operations, 1940-1945"
An insightful, up-front look at the strategies and tactics of World
War II and at the generals who fought the war and sometimes battled
one another.--Gerald Astor, Author of "The Bloody Forest" and "The
Greatest War: D-Day and the Assault on Europe"
Martin Blumenson is a true military history professional. He does
not sensationalize; he bases his accounts on hard, primary sources.
Sometimes I disagree with his judgements, but never with his
thoroughness. Heroes Never Die will be a gold mine for the military
history buff.--John S. D. Eisenhower, Author of "The Bitter Woods"
and "Allies"
The book is a valuable refresher of thoughts and issues that have
been facing military people for much of the last century.--Gen.
Frederick J. Kroesen, USA (Ret.) "Army Magazine "
These essays by Martin Blumenson epitomize the integrity and
quality of that elite of military historians who faithfully
recorded the saga of American arms in the 20th Century. They
contain gems belonging to his thoughtful approaches to the study of
war and thoughts that encompass the strategies, tactics, battles
and personalities who dominated the campaigns of the Second World
War.--Kenneth J. Macksey, Author of "Rommel: Battles and Campaigns"
and "Invasion: The Alternate History of the German Invasion of
England, July 19
"Heroes Never Die" stands as a tribute to the gifts and
contributions of one of the ablest historians of World War II. The
work is thorough, informative, and stimulating. Blumenson combines,
perhaps better than any other, scholarly skepticism, military
applicability, and accessible narrative. His latest book is highly
recommended to scholars and "buffs" alike.--Robert C. Blackstone
