Praise for "Omar Bradley: General at War"
"In "Omar Bradley: General at War," Jim DeFelice brings a war hero
to life. Through the pages of this fast-paced and thoroughly
researched story, the crack shot from Middle America emerges as an
intellectual force behind some of America's greatest victories--and
a man who held his own against titans like Eisenhower, Patton, and
Montgomery. From the deserts of Tunisia to the blood-stained snows
of Bastogne, DeFelice's saga of war, heroism, and humility gives
America's last five-star general a literary monument he never had
in life. "Omar Bradley: General at War" is a truly remarkable book
you'll enjoy for its skillful writing as well as its historical
credibility. Highly recommended!"
--Jonathan W. Jordan, bestselling author of "Brothers, Rivals,
Victors: Eisenhower, Patton, Bradley and the Partnership that Drove

"Jim DeFelice has written an entertaining and readable account of a
great leader's life, showing what shaped his character and how he
faced some of the greatest military challenges of the twentieth
century. Military buffs will be pleased. Anyone who reads it will
be enriched."

towering U.S. military figure. And he does it with the masterful
style of a veteran writer."
