This is a very good book. It gives a detailed account of the activities of Montana's 163rd Infantry Regiment from training, to combat. It draws heavily off of personal journals kept by the soldiers, so you can expect it to be pretty accurate. It tells about many of the more humorous happenings, as well as some of the not so humerous happenings. Some of the events are somewhat unbelievable. On the other hand, it doesn't have all that much action, which is the main reason I don't give it 5 stars. All in all, whether you are just interested in accurate, non-fiction wartime history, or are just from Montana (like I am) and interested in the role of Montanans in the war, this is a good book to read. Read and enjoy.
