Attack Transport: The U.S.S. Zeilin in World War II- An Oral History Book

I discovered this book while trying to find out more about my Great Uncle who was killed during WWII and was a part of this group, better known as the Iron Men of Metz. I found it to be very interesting. I liked that it had the stories of several different people so that you could see how different people's experiences varied. It didn't seem sugar-coated, but gave me a better idea of what these young people must have felt to suddenly be put into such a terrifying situation. I will never be able to really understand what they went through, but I think this book gave a little glimpse of it.

The one thing about this book that I did not like was the MANY typos. I cannot understand how that many typos could get past anybody for it to be printed that way. Ignoring that, however, I would recommend this book to anybody who likes history or wants to learn a little bit more about the Iron Men of Metz and WWII.
