Books read in 2011

Mon Dec 12, 2011 6:30 pm

What books did everyone enjoy reading in 2011? For me, "Mission to Berlin" by Robert Dorr, "Once Upon a Time in War" by Robert Humphrey, "Twilight Warriors" by Robert Gandt, "In the Garden of Beasts" by Erik Larson, "Neptune's Inferno" by James Hornfisher, "Exorcising Hitler" by Frederick Taylor, "Red Blood, Black Sand" by Charles Tatum and now I'm reading "The Last Gun Fight, The Real Story of the Shootout at the O.K. Corral" by Jeff Guinn. All real good books for sure. Because of the recent fire sale at Borders, I have a backlog of about 15 books to read.

- The Longest Day, Ryan (FINALLY, Can't believe I hadn't read it before)
- The Legacy of the Second World War, Lukacs
- Beyond Stalingrad, Sadarananda
- Stick and Rudder, Langewiesche
