This historical fiction novel follows several Allied Forces characters through WWII. The reader is even given a peak into what training would have been like for soldiers and operatives during that time. Thanks for the review!

Forgotten Heroes of wW-II, the French Resistance" by Luis Gil Armendariz.
I don't have any idea about second world war.. Totally blank this story helps to recall some of the great forgetten leaders.. Some of them really sacrifice themselves... As the Reviewer said 'll have the clear idea of the war and the stunts they perform.. They facilitate the Neutrality Law that outlaws US citizens from joining any of the nations at war.wow! We never gonna know unless reading this... Good rating!

The book seem very interesting and will serve as an enlightening piece for those who would like to know about world war two. It is interesting that I can be able to learn one or two German and Spanish words from it too.

I never really learned anything from history when I was in high school. So now that I'm an adult, I really crave history. This one looks captivating, thrilling, and fun to read. I hope that as I read this, I will feel as if I am a part of the story. Thanks

It was really amazing book of forgotten heroes of ww-2. I really like the history of your past. Really they are great because they fought for the country.i really loved the author for me to learn the things that happened in the past. They book contains alot of information of our past second world war. I really liked the French resistance by luis gil armendariz. These was great war between the Germany and Britain. However filter was planed to take over the world. In those times there equipment was really good. Germany has a very powerful army they attacked polland, Denmark etc. And after that bertain and france declared war on Germans. Y
Really the book is filled with actions. And courage of the solders.

Historically fiction is something that I would enjoy reading. I didn't take history as a subject in school but I have heard the World War II stories. I would love to read this book to see what they have to say about it. Great review !

The review was beautifully written and it made me want to try reading history books. This is a perfect opportunity for bookies to try out a genre they’re very uncomfortable with but through other’s words they can be swayed. Real-life events portrayed in the story is really worth reading and makes you want to reflect on your own life.

I'm not really a history book fan, and I think that's because I can never be sure of how much facts are behind, but this read sounds real , like a lot of research went on.. thanks for the review, I'll definitely add this one on my shelves

It looks like this is a book I should read. I’m really drawn to it by your observations that the author provided some real-life stories and that language translations are provided where necessary. This smacks of the kind of attention to detail that I live for.

The story follows two US citizens who defy the neutrality order and volunteer as pilots for Great Britain during the war. The author pens a captivating tale that will leave readers yearning for more.
