An Excellent LOOK INTO HISTORY! Visuals and text are A+++

I purchased this book for my 12 year old son because he was interested in real war stories. This book breaks down World War II with real stories and genuinely professional pictures. He loves the book! They say "a picture paints a thousand words" - that describes this book although it is written carefully with full explanations and many commentaries. Nothing is lacking in this book. I can pick up this book any day and read something new. VERY IMPRESSED. I am a history buff and it's a great HISTORY LESSON!!
