Ernie's the Man

by Cityplaya on July 30, 2010

Anyone familiar with the written history of the men (and women) who fought during WWII will know the name of Ernie Pyle. He is arguably the preeminant biographer of the American fighting man. He saw it all before being killed by an enamy sniper late in the war. This particular work, "Brave Men" is, in my opinion, one of if not the best work he produced. If you're interested in WWI history, and especially the history of the average Joe, Pyle's is the work to read.
