The War of the World/ I Wish I'd Been There

Interesting book at first
April 28, 2010

I am not a critic , and I have never written a book, especially one of this length. Though I have always been interested in history, I knew nothing of the "pograms" in eastern Europe in the early 1900s. Other than this I found this book full of flawed beliefs which are furthered by disputing statistics. Written as a Brit supporting the beliefs of the English it is one more failed wanna be historical book. Finally reaching the end of this book I was struck by his assertions conflicting with his own data. I am an American by birth, one side of my family Germanic was here in th 18th century, further my dad was in WWII and this authors allegations about the US military and the US involvement in that war are just flawed. I am very tired of being overwhelmed by the British viewpoint on everything as if they are the purveyors of all truth.
