Publisher's Summary
Paul Bäumer is just 19 years old when he and his classmates enlist. They are Germany’s Iron Youth who enter the war with high ideals and leave it disillusioned or dead. As Paul struggles with the realities of the man he has become, and the inscrutable world to which he must return, he is led like a ghost of his former self into the war’s final hours. All Quiet is one of the greatest war novels of all time, an eloquent expression of the futility, hopelessness and irreparable losses of war.

Story5 out of 5 stars 48
This Pulitzer Prize-winning history of World War II chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of the Japanese empire, from the invasion of Manchuria and China to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Told from the Japanese perspective, The Rising Sun is, in the author’s words, "a factual saga of people caught up in the flood of the most overwhelming war of mankind, told as it happened - muddled, ennobling, disgraceful, frustrating, full of paradox."

On June 6, 1944, the greatest armada in history stood off Normandy and the largest amphibious invasion ever began as 107,000 men aboard 6,000 ships pressed toward the coast. Among them were 14,500 Canadians, who were to land on a five-mile-long stretch of rocky ledges fronted by a dangerously exposed beach. Drawing on personal diaries as well as military records, Juno Beach: Canada's D-Day Victory, June 6, 1944 dramatically depicts Canada's pivotal contribution to the critical Allied battle of World War II.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 681
America is a barren landscape of smoldering ashes, devoid of life except for those people still struggling to scratch out some type of existence. Amidst this destruction, a father and his young son walk, always toward the coast, but with no real understanding that circumstances will improve once they arrive. Still, they persevere, and their relationship comes to represent goodness in a world of utter devastation.

Very few people know that Mark Twain wrote a major work on Joan of Arc. Still fewer know that he considered it not only his most important, but also his best work. He spent 12 years in research and many months in France doing archival work, and then made several attempts until he felt he finally had the story he wanted to tell.

Must read for any historian
This book is a must read for any historian interested in this era. It paints an incredible picture of the futility and brutality of war at the individual level. There’s a reason Hitler and the Nazis had it banned and publicly burned as “unpatriotic.”

Great Narration
Although the writing style reflects early 20th century Europe, I found the passion and intonation in the narrator's made this an interesting listen and really emphasized the horrors and loss of hope during war.

Numbing narrative: you will not regret listening to this book.
So sad that mankind has not learned from history and especially from the very real and humble accounts of front line soldiers. This book is numbing. It makes the listener want to shout to the world ‘what the hell is wrong with everyone! ‘

A must listen for any war reader
Very relaxing voice to listen to. Almost to relaxing as I often feel asleep. my favorite chapter was 11 as it really wrapped up the whole experience and put things in perspective. I will definitely buy the book to add to my collection to read again.

The Realities of War
Just a great story that details many aspects of the realities of war through a lens not often considered, Thoroughly enjoyed the recording, but had to speed it up to 2.0 because of long pauses and slow narration.

Brutal
This book takes away any and all glorification of war. It's brutal, disturbing and emotionally charged.
This isn't the type of book I normally listen to but I wanted to listen to some of the classics.
Narration is extremely slow so I sped it up and it moved along at a good pace.
If you want reality then listen to this. I highly recommend it.
