Publications crossed up
I decided to buy The Greatest Generation 'Kindle Edition' and when I downloaded my purchase, I got instead 'The Greatest Generation SPEAKS'. The follow-up to it. Apparently this is some crossed up links at Amazon Kindle and if you look at this particular ad you will notice that in spite of the title saying 'The Greates...

It is not worth the time spent reading it.
This book is repetitious and after several episodes, boring. Tom Brokaw should stick to reading the news on NBC. If you want a good book on this subject, read,"Citizen Soldiers." You will not regret it.

Redundant and repetitious.
"Tom...don't quit your day job."The Greatest Generation is both cliche-ridden and self-servng.This book is merely a platform for Mr. Brokaw's ultra-left leanings.Tom never tells us what some of these heroes think of our present "commander in chief."

TV scripts don't always make good books
There are some touching chapters in this book, but overall, some of the material was less-than-gripping. As I read this book, I could imagine the text as part of a TV news story script complete with old pictures, natural sound, some long pauses in the piece as the camera pushes in or pulls out on the shot. Coupled with...

Very disappointed! Tom was in a hurry.
I expected more depth and insight into the major themes that drove this generation supported by the individual interviews. I found the book boring and tiring. I would not recommend it to anyone.

Now we know why he is a newscaster
Brokaw delivers a lightweight, sketchy, collection of interviews with World War Two vets, which unfortunately has made him a lot of money and spawned equally mediocre sequels.There are an infinite number of far superior books covering the same ground.

Unlike Adams' other works, this provides no satire, and very very little humor.
