The book "World War II Primary Sources" by Barbara C. Bigelow is filled with information on every page. This book is great if you need to do research on World War 2. This book has many different little stories and informative parts to it. My favorite section of the book is 'The Home Front' which talks about what life was like at home away from the war. It is interesting to hear stuff from people who witnessed this historical game changing war.

I give this book five stars for many reasons. The first one is that it is dense with layers of information. To add on to that information it is told by people who witnessed it which means it is mostly true. The best thing about the book to me is how it talks about all parts of the war with a lot of information in each section. This book is not written like a normal book with chapters, the book has sections instead of chapters. I like this better because if you are using it for information you can just go to the section you need. This book is also good because it is a informative book which is meant to further your knowledge unlike books that tell fairy tales and stuff like that. Those are some of the reasons that this book is great and why I gave it 5 stars.

The book "World War II Primary Sources" by Barbara C. Bigelow was very informative. It is written differently than most other books which makes it interesting and easier to read. I definitely recommend this book to people who like history and informative books.

I picked this up to help me with a research paper i am doing, and while the content is very captivating, especially the personal accounts of the Normandy Beach Landings, i did not find what i was looking for. It may not have helped me in my quest, but it most certainly will help with others.

Dari e-book gratis, lumayan lah dari pada beli, kalau tidak salah sekitar Rp. 200.000 labih, hard cover, ukuran besar.
Mantab buat nambah koleksi Perang Dunia 2!
