Patton, Jr. Historical Society, "A Damned Fine War is A Damned Fine Book! Patton did, indeed, have the intelligence, ability, and capacity for five-star rank."Editorial Reviews:Bill Yennes A Damned Fine War is an action-packed, Patton-size novel. This book, a classic battle between good and evil played out on an international stage, is fast moving and entertaining. Any person interested in history will be properly moved by the what-if scenarios involving victorious armies and men of history. A great read. I highly recommend it!Brian Sobel, Author of The Fighting PattonsI have always enjoyed counterfactual histories, but good ones are more than just entertainment. Alternative histories can make us think about what might have happened if things had turned out a little differently, and what the consequences would have been. Bill Yennes A Damned Fine War succeeds triumphantly on both accounts. It is an excellent read, and offers us some sobering "might have beens."
