Reviews

Ambrose's latest, and perhaps most controversial, book purports to be about those who flew in the B-24 heavy bombers against the Third Reich. Actually, its focus is very much on the service of one pilot: former Sen. George McGovern. While the story of McGovern's commendable service is quite interesting and sometimes moving, the author could have given more space to others who flew in the B-24s. This work is certainly not on a par with Ambrose's earlier Band of Brothers. Jeffrey DeMunn's delivery is steady and his voice smooth. Ambrose himself reads a foreword and an afterword that display his usual enthusiasm for his subject. Public libraries should seriously consider this program, despite its flaws.-Michael T.
