Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I really enjoyed this book, the style it was written, and they way Groom presents the story. One fact that I noticed and liked is that Groom checked his facts and used multiple sources to corroborate the facts he presents to the reader. The book focuses on many different levels of the conflict, from the strategic to the tactical level and also details the events that lead to the climate of 1942. Yes the book is written from an American point of view, but the scope of world events are woven into the story. I like how Groom takes the time to briefly point out some if the issues that have raised questions in 1942 and since. This is where Groom's use of various sources comes in handy; and He gives us his opinion which he is entitled to. The book flows excellently and portrays the events in this hectic year in great detail. As an avid reader of history I did find the book very interesting because of Groom's insight and how he is not afraid to insert a personal opinion. If you enjoyed 1942, I recommend "A Storm in Flanders" very highly.
