Eyewitness Pacific Theater • I have the companion book “Eyewitness D-Day”, so this was a nice find, and will compliment my other volume.

Victory at Sea • Wow, the cover of this one reminds me of another book I have. I hope I didn’t already have it!

Stalingrad to Berlin • Same with this one. When you have a lot of books on the same topic, sometimes they start looking alike.

Hitler: Downfall 1939-1945 • This is the second of two books, but published four years ago so the info inside is going to be different from the 1967 book I read on the same subject. I have others like this but the more views I read on this, the better.

It is so interesting to read old books. This one is from 1902, which is more than a decade before World War I, and a decade before the loss of the Titanic. Yet, there is still a lot that is correct in it which can still be learned from. I have to wonder exactly when all of these notes were taken, I think it would have to be soon after the book was originally purchased, so more than a hundred years ago.

A FEW DAYS LATER: I found the American History version of this book at a yard sale for two bucks! It was published ten years after the Western Europe one! What are the odds? I think these history books were for students and many were made. But still, a neat, and timely find!
