Hope the nickname comes from your choice of Beef and not an attitude, LOL.

Michael, welcome...I have already bookmarked your blog site. I have been looking for Bataan poet Henry Lee. can find a book on Amazon but it is so far above my budget, if you know any anthologies that have some of his poems please advise.
You will love this group

Welcome Marko, this is a great group that has so much to share.

[Federico]

Hello everyone,

I'm Federico from Milan, Italy.
I collect and read books on ww2 since I was young, mostly in English. My core interest is German Panzers, and Tiger tank especially.
I have a specialised military bookstore here in Milan, so I am quite updated, but I collect German out of print titles. Especially divisional and other units histories.
I am now focused in the Tunisian and Italian campaigns, as I am trying to write a book on a German tiger tank unit. Don't have very much time to socialise, but it like the right place for me!

Regards
Federico

[Boudewijn]

Ciao Frederico, bienvenudo. I think you have come to the right place, this is a great group!

Welcome Frederico.

[Nissa]

Hi, my name is Nissa and I love reading WW2 history (fiction or nonfiction). I'm just now finding this group and it looks pretty busy so hopefully I can get with other people on here to discuss all the many, many history books out there. I'm currently reading several WW2 books. One of them is Dadland by Keggie Carew. It is not in publication in the US right now, but I believe it is in the U.K. If you've not heard of the book yet you should check it out. Dadland

Welcome to the group Nissa. That looks like a promising book. Will look for your comments on it.

[Positive Kate]

Welcome Nissa and Frederico! We look forward to your posts.

[Colin]

See my website www.heatonlewisbooks.com and go to the Future Books page, where I have data from my interviews with German tank crews and commanders, most of them Knight's Cross holders or higher. I was a consultant for the film Fury, and I brought Otto Carius in as an expert/

Hello to all our new joiners since Christmas. You are all most welcome. The people on here have a real mix of interests and knowledge levels so please feel free to pitch in and I look forward to chatting WWII (or WWI) books with you all.

[Larcenet]

Hello everyone,

I'm Larcenet from Genk, Belgium.

I have an interest in the second world war since I was about six years old. Being an avid reader this naturally grew into reading a lot of books on this vast subject.
I am more critical now in what I read, after 40 + years of books you become much more impatient to badly written or poorly researched works I find and I hope to get some new ideas for books that are worth reading.

I am looking forward to meeting some people here and share some reading experiences.

Warm regards,
Larcenet

Welcome to Bill, Tom and Larcenet! I'd highly suggest buying some new bookshelves as your old ones are going to get filled up pretty quickly with a plethora of suggestions! Don't be afraid to ask for recommendations on any topic!

Hastings and Beevor are definately two of the better writers currently working.

Hi,
I live in Seattle and have been interested in World War II since reading the Cornelius Ryan books as a kid. I lived in Europe for some years and tried to get to as many of the old battle fields as possible.
