A Soldier's Story by Omar N. Bradley (1978-01-03) di Omar N. Bradley

I just finished A General’s Life, a good biography and told from the 1st person perspective.
While informative, I enjoyed A Soldier’s Story more on his Word War 2 career and Jim DeFelice’s Bradley biography more for a cradle to grave biography.
