The Rising Tide, a Novel of World War II

by Jeff Shaara, 2006

This book wasn’t as good as I expected as it didn’t hold my attention, especially in the first part of the book.  I expected a bit more suspense as in the case of his father’s book on Gettysburg, but it just didn’t seem to deliver.  I found the reading to get better as I plowed through it and I eventually finished it.

The book was extremely well researched, however, and it provided me with knowledge of the Africa and Sicily campaign in World War II, something I knew nothing about. three stars
