The final book (The Guns at Last Light) in Rick Atkinson's WWII trilogy is finally out. I've read the first two; An Army at Dawn and The Day of Battle, and they're great.
Atkinson does a great job of giving the reader both the large, strategic points of view, and then zooming down in on key points on the individual soldier's level. He's taken a really long time to finish this trilogy. I think the second book came out in 2007, so this third book has been six years coming.
Hopefully, it is as good as the first two. SPOILER ALERT: Germany loses.
