Fact and fiction collide to make this mystery a page turner.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Il Comandante (Paperback)
I enjoyed this book tremendously. IL Comandante reads like a screen play with the scenes rapidly changing so that the reader actually finds himself visualizing the action while quickly turning page after page. Not only is the reader presented with a challenging and exciting mystery to solve, but he is also given factual insight into the everyday trials that faced trench-bound GI's stationed in battle-scarred Italy during World War II. This book combines fiction with a first-hand account of war and its aftermath. Especially interesting is Lt. Col. James Solomon's description of his time spent after the war as the Commandant of a refugee camp in Modena, Italy. It is not often that we hear what happens to the victims of war after the cease-fire. James Solomon is part of "The Greatest Generation" as Tom Brokaw labeled the veterans of World War II, and his story is another worthy chapter in their rich history. This is a good first book by this author.
