As you are aware by now I am an historian, and a historian’s answer to almost any question is something like: ‘ there must be a book about that; I need to find it (them); I need to read it (them).’
With that in mind I want to provide a brief list of books that I have found helpful as I have tried to gain a better understanding of the war in which my great-uncle died. This is by no means an extensive list – there have been thousands of books written about the war and I have not even scratched the surface. Still, you have to begin somewhere. If you find any of these interesting, do what trained historians do – keep reading!
