Industry reviews
"Brokaw writes that 'no block of marble or elaborate edifice can equal their lives of sacrifice and achievement, duty and honor, as monuments to their time.' In 'The Greatest Generation', he has compiled a moving scrapbook as a tribute to the members of the World War II generation to whom we Americans and the world owe so much."
