    Excellent Resource on the Fighting in Normandy
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2021*

The author has created an excellent reference on the 21st Army Group's battle in Normandy from the D-Day invasion to the breakout. What Mr. Kite has done is distill a great amount of detailed information into a fascinating look at what it was like to serve in that army as a British or Canadian soldier. He looks closely at the various arms of the military institution of 1944: artillery, infantry, armor, medical, air support, naval support, etc. He succeeds in giving us a soldier's-eye view of their wartime experience in a sufficient amount of detail.My favorite parts of the book are his use of the extensive veteran quotes he's culled from a wide variety of references. He makes liberal use of the many veteran memoirs, unit histories, and campaign narratives published in the last 30 years or so. Books like "The Battalion," "By Tank into Normandy," "Tank Tracks," "Troop Leader," "Forrard," "The Guns of Normandy," "Mailed Fist," "Fear is the Foe," "Marching to the Sound of Gunfire," "So Few Got Through," "Armoured Guardsman," "The Only Way Out," "Sixty-Four Days of a Normandy Summer," "Lion Rampant," "Breaking the Panzers," and "The Pendulum of Battle" to name only a few. Though I already have these and many of the other references he used in my personal library, I found his research and the way he tied them all together in this masterful work to be very useful to my own understanding. In addition, if his quotes from any of those sources sparked my curiosity I could then delve into those books further. This makes it a very handy reference for deeper research.He also drew from interviews, correspondence, and private, unpublished papers from a variety of eyewitnesses and military authorities. And some of the early unit histories were used, those published just after the war, that are now usually only found in specialty libraries and museum collections, unavailable to the average reader.In short, I found this huge undertaking (467 pgs.) to be a great resource for students of the Normandy Campaign and the British Army during World War II. This one will be considered a classic work, and once out of print, highly sought after by serious students and scholars of that time period. I recommend it. Get a copy while you still can!

    A must read on soldiering
  

*by R***A on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2018*

Anyone interested in soldiering or becoming a soldier-this is a must read-courage,leadership,doing the job,suffering,heroism all are shown & defined in human terms-the book to read if one is thinking of being a soldier or one  needs to find his bearings if he already is one- an important read before someone goes into combat-should be required reading at military academies

*by J***D on Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2017*

I have enjoyed Stout Hearts as I was at the site of the battle in 2008.  My son had just returned from Iraqi and this was my gift to him for his service.  We had blast in exploring Normandy and the entire battlefield.  I have always wondered why it took so long for the Brits go finish the task from Dec ,1944. Clearly Casualties and the terrain were against this force.  Stout Hearts gave me a better understanding of this period. I would highly recommend this book for students of the Normandy campaign.
