Review:
Robert Cowleyfounding editor of "MHQ: The Quarterly Journal of Military History," and editor of "No End Save Victory: Perspectives on World War II" Stanley Weintraub's poignant account of the day one of the worst of wars took a holiday sounds like the stuff of fiction, but it was the sort of event that fiction can only imitate. No wonder that his book reads like a novel, a true story that has the power to haunt.
