The Winds of War (Winds of War Series, 1)

The Winds of War (Winds of War Series, 1)

Herman Woukâ‚¬s sweeping epic of World War II, which begins with The Winds of War and continues in War and Remembrance, stands as the crowning achievement of one of Americaâ‚¬s most celebrated storytellers. Like no other books about the war, Woukâ‚¬s spellbinding narrative captures the tide of global events â‚¬" and all the drama, romance, heroism, and tragedy of World War II â‚¬" as it immerses us in the lives of a single American family drawn into the very center of the warâ‚¬s maelstrom. â‚¬Å“The Winds of War gives more vivid pictures of the principal leaders of the war than military and political history could. Fiction is better than history at showing â‚¬Ëœhow it really wasâ‚¬ where matters of human character are concerned.â‚¬Â â‚¬" Political Science Quarterly â‚¬Å“First-rate storytelling.â‚¬Â â‚¬" New York Times â‚¬Å“With the whole world as its setting, The Winds of War tells the intimate story of an American family â‚¬" a Navy family â‚¬" caught up in the vortex of world conflict. . . . World history comes to life at a personal, eyewitness level.â‚¬Â â‚¬" Philadelphia Inquirer â‚¬Å“Wouk is a matchless storyteller with a gift for characterization, an ear for convincing dialogue, and a masterful grasp of what was at stake in World War II.â‚¬Â â‚¬" San Francisco Chronicle
