A Masterpiece of Historical Fiction-The Great Novel of America"s "Greatest Generation" Herman Wouk"s sweeping epic of World War II, which begins with The Winds of War and continues in War and Remembrance, stands as the crowning achievement of one of America"s most celebrated storytellers. Like no other books about the war, Wouk"s spellbinding narrative captures the tide of global events-and all the drama, romance, heroism, and tragedy of World War II-as it immerses us in the lives of a single American family drawn into the very center of the war"s maelstrom.
