Product Information

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In the first volume of his monumental trilogy about the liberation of Europe in WW II, Pulitzer Prize winner Rick Atkinson tells the riveting story of the war in North Africa The liberation of Europe and the destruction of the Third Reich is a story of courage and enduring triumph, of calamity and miscalculation. In this first volume of the Liberation Trilogy, Rick Atkinson shows why no modern reader can understand the ultimate victory of the Allied powers without a grasp of the great drama that unfolded in North Africa in 1942 and 1943. That first year of the Allied war was a pivotal point in American history, the moment when the United States began to act like a great power. Beginning with the daring amphibious invasion in November 1942, An Army at Dawn follows the American and British armies as they fight the French in Morocco and Algeria, and then take on the Germans and Italians in Tunisia. Battle by battle, an inexperienced and sometimes poorly led army gradually becomes a superb fighting force. Central to the tale are the extraordinary but fallible commanders who come to dominate the battlefield: Eisenhower, Patton, Bradley, Montgomery, and Rommel. Brilliantly researched, rich with new material and vivid insights, Atkinson's narrative provides the definitive history of the war in North Africa.

  • Great book on under reported WWII campaigns

    I had never really thought about the Allied campaign in North Africa in World War II. This book is an excellent tool to explain the importance of the victory in North Africa and the sacrifice, and frustrations the Allies had to deal with to finally remove the Nazis and Italians out of that continent. Atkinson won the Pulitzer Prize for this book and when you read it you will understand why. He is a story teller extraordinaire. Part poet, part journalist, part analyst, part historian, it all adds up to a very readable chapter of WWII history. It is remarkable how the reader can follow along with the characters on both sides. Atkinson uses excerpts from letters, diaries and veteran interviews to keep the story on a very human scale. The research and retelling of this battle is superb and I ...

  • An Army at Dawn

    My actual reason for buying this book is that I wanted to learn more about the history of World War 2 in North Africa. I recently heard it discussed on a television program which brought it to my attention. At that time I planned to watch the movie "Casablanca" again, and thought it would make it more interesting to know the historical background for the story. However, I soon forgot my original reason and became absorbed in the book because it is so well written, providing such interesting details about the battles and people involved during that time period. Also, a family member was involved in that part of the war. I was only 8 years old when the war began, not fully comprehending what was taking place. Looking back on it, I find it fascinating to learn about why and how our ...

  • First rate historical of America's early WW2 involvement.

    Thoroughly enjoyed this historical narrative on the early days of American military involvement in WW2 on the Western Front. Deeply researched, well written and extremely interesting information that expanded my knowledge of this not often explored area of American military operations in WW2.
