Bestselling author Alex Kershaw’s most recent title is “Against All Odds: A True Story of Ultimate Courage and Survival in World War II.”
The book begins in North Africa and follows four men from one unit through Italy, France and Germany. The action is fast-paced and more harrowing because the book is military history and not a work of fiction. I know while reading it the good guys win in the end, but I’m not sure what our heroes will face getting there, and how many friends they will lose.
One of the heroes this book covers is a 138-pound very young Texan named Audie Murphy. The other three men featured in the book are Maurice “Footsie” Britt, Michael Daly and Keith Ware. All four men won the Congressional Medal of Honor.
