Rating:  Summary: Audie Fan? You MUST have this book!!! Review: Actually, I give it ten stars! This outstanding book is the must-have for fans of "The Most Decorated Combat Soldier of World War II". I acquired mine in 1998 and it's still an indispensible resource!There is no other single source of printed material on Audie as extensive as this. From his family tree, to being born into a family of twelve children, to his military career, to his film career and beyond, Simpson combines excellent prose with hundreds of photos, graphics, maps, drawings, etc. Yeah, it's expensive, but it's also a large book and there were only 5000 printed. A few years ago, there were only 500 known copies left of the original printing. This will be about as close as you get to meeting Audie L. Murphy...don't miss this chance! George K.

Rating:  Summary: If you love Audie, you'll love this book! Review: I bought my copy years ago and it is one of the most highly detailed and informative books on this Great American Hero I have ever read and I own several on him. If you can get a copy of this book, then do so. I is a must for every Audie Murphy library.
Rating:  Summary: A must for every Audie Murphy fan. Review: I should have to "ditto" the review by Ms. Richardson. This is a must for ALL "Audie" admirers, such as myself. It is very detailed and Col. Simpson did extensive research with the help of Mr. Murphy's family and friends. You'll laugh and "CRY" in this special book about a very special WWII combat soldier.
Rating:  Summary: Absolutely Great! Review: I'm a disabled Marine Corps Vietnam Veteran and have a great admiration and respect for this truely great American War hero. Col. Simpson has written the best book that I have ever read regarding Audie Murphy. I'm fortunate to have his wife, Vera, as a neighbor and a very dear close friend of mine. I've been honored by his wife as she presented me a signed copy of this book as a Christmas gift in 1998. I shall forever treasure this great book and it's author, Col. Harold B. Simpson.
