I have a patron who is looking for a fairly recent, non-fiction book about
World War II. He read a review, most likely in the New York Times, but he
isn't sure( I searched the NYT website & couldn't come up with anything
conclusive). He thinks it has two co-authors, It is primarily about the
European Theater. It wasn't Flags of our Fathers (which is about the pacific
theater, anyway). Any ideas? Thanks in advance for all your "book wisdom".

Could it be "Finest hour: the Battle of Britain" by Tim Clayton and Phil
Craig? This was pub. in 2000 and I think there was a PBS documentary.
