This book is a good contrast to Ambrose's Band of Brothers. This book offers a different insight into the man Major Dick Winters. It is a very good read if you like WWII and the 101st Airborne.

Dick Winters is a bit too self effacing to provide a really thorough biography but this book does add a deeply personal dimension to the overall story. many of the episodes in 'Band of Brothers' are repeated but most include more detail. Various command relationships are explained, allowing a much better understanding of what Major Winters had to deal with besides merely the Germans.

Excellent book.
