As the number of posts on this blog is gradually building up, I felt I ought to try and organise it a bit better. So I'm trying out the Google Blogger 'Pages' function. This, my first such page, is for all my book reviews, listing them as links in various categories. I'll start out by listing them alphabetically, by the author's surname, and see how that works!
Some of these reviews are posted whilst or directly after reading the book in question, whereas others may be older, or written up from notes taken when I first read the book. Entries that don't have an active link are either books I'm currently reading, or books I have read, but haven't got around to reviewing on this blog as yet.

WWII
Ambrose, Stephen E. - D-Day. Just the big day itself, with a heavy weighting towards Omaha. Ambrose seems out of favour, perhaps especially in the U.S. at present (or at least on the TMP message boards). I think that's a great shame, and very largely misplaced. This is an excellent book, rich in firsthand testimony, and consummately well written, from the point of view of exciting historical narrative.
