After beginning this book I quickly recognized that the author, George Wilson, had a knack for writing. The book was published in 1987 when he was 58 years old but he writes like the young man he was when these events took place. This is not the narrative of an old man reflecting on his life. The immediacy of his senses is in the range of diary entries but this is not a compilation of notes from a diary. This is a well written first hand account of George Wilson's experiences during WWII. After an adequate introduction and some background for the author the narrative moves along at a steady pace. Throughout the book Wilson provides relevant details and shares his perception of events as they unfolded followed by some hindsight. George Wilson's experience in WWII is rare. In a sequence of harrowing events few survived and in at least one instance he is the only survivor. This book deserves to be listed as one of the best written on WWII. This is a story of one individual's experiences in the infantry. It is one of the best written memoirs. Like most soldiers during WWII, George Wilson was just a regular guy taking part in an historical event. Even though George Wilson is clearly a true hero demonstrating skill in leadership, battle strategy, poise and courage under great duress we do not easily forget he is just a regular guy doing the best he can with what has been handed to him. His humanity is ever-present in his words. Upon finishing the book I immediately did some research to see whether he had written other works and hoping he was still alive. Unfortunately George Wilson passed away in 2005 at the age of 84 and this is his only book.
