The Winds of War - An American Naval Classic of WW II
In December (Pearl Harbor), we shift gears with some great, classic naval historic fiction introducing U.S. Naval Comdr. Victor "Pug" Henry and his far flung family caught up in the convolutions of WW II. Accomplished author Herman Wouk's "The Winds of War" is great, light reading for the holidays. Travel with 'Pug' Henry and his family as they are immersed from Berlin to Hawaii and the Pacific in the very center of the War's maelstrom
Top Recommendation for December
The Winds of War, by Herman Wouk (1971 - 857 pp)
First-rate story telling marks this panoramic, thoroughly engaging story about WW II U.S naval officer Cdr "Pug" Henry and his family as he moves up the ladder of command as an attache in Berlin at the outbreak of War to command of a battleship in the Pacific.
