jbkep 's review for:
Mission: Jimmy Stewart and the Fight for Europe
by Robert Matzen
Gigantic thanks to Goodreads for me winning this book! I'm always thankful for a free book, but it's always better when I like it as much as I have this one.
Now, it is an uncorrected proof, so I can't make any calls on editing and the like which is a knee-jerk reaction for me. The story is great. I love the prose style of this history. You're really made to get into the head of Jimmy Stewart. (I'm sorry, Robert Matzen; as much as you tried to beat it into my head that he should be called Jim, even though I agree, he'll always be Jimmy to me.)
Matzen really made me see the airfield at Tibenham. I could see the giant armada's of planes flying over Europe, feel the anxiety of the missions... Very descriptive.
I fully recommend this book, and I personally can't wait to see the final edition.
