A review by xxstefaniereadsxx
Spearhead: An American Tank Gunner, His Enemy, and a Collision of Lives in World War II by Adam Makos

emotional informative slow-paced

5.0

 This book is about a Sherman tank crew and a Panzer tank crew, who were part of the most intense tank duel in the city of Cologne. This book was so, so moving. I never really considered what life as part of a tank crew would be like. I never expected it to be the way that it was described in this book. What a difficult, hard time. I follow Adam Makos on social media, and I loved seeing Clarence Smoyer being given such recognition. I am so glad that he and Gustav were able to meet each other outside of the war. This was such a great book, and probably the best one I had read all year. I hope that this author continues to write amazing books like this one.
