Revisado: 06-14-24
The narrow focus of this book allowed for learning fascinating details of the leaders but also I am sure a very realistic view of the difficulties yet commitments of those who settled on the fringe of civilization.

America was built on white pine. From the 1600s through the Civil War and beyond, it was used to build the nation's ships and houses, barns, and bridges. Yet this popularity came at a cost: by the end of the nineteenth century, clear cutting had decimated much of America's white pine forests. In White Pine, ecologist and writer John Pastor takes listeners on walk through history, connecting the white pine forests that remain today to a legacy of destruction and renewal.

A very personal view of WW11 and the position of a tanker gunner.

I almost felt like I was there experiencing the war. The research that was accomplished to write a book filled with such detail and then accompanied by all the emotions made for a great read. I would love to have children in their late teens read this book to learn of the real war
