Some excellent books on WW2

I have read Cornelius Ryans A Bridge Too Far, Gordon Pranges Miracle At Midway, and Stephen Ambroses Band Of Brothers and Pegasus Bridge. I've read em, I like em. Anybody else read these books and have other books on WW2 which are excellent. [/u]

An Army at Dawn by Rick Atkinson is great (part of a trilogy following the American military in Europe), also A Time for Trumpets: The Untold Story of the Battle of the Bulge and All American, All the Way are two great reads.
