Learn moreIn war, great commanders lead soldiers into hell to do the impossible.
They were called Easy Company—but their mission was never easy. Immortalized as the “Band of Brothers,” they suffered huge casualties while liberating Europe in an unparalleled record of bravery under fire.
Dick Winters led them through the Battle of the Bulge, the attack on Foy—where Easy Company reached its breaking point—and finally into Germany, by which time each member had been wounded. Outside Munich, they liberated an SS death camp and captured Berchtesgaden, Hitler’s alpine retreat.
Beyond Band of Brothers is Winters’s memoir, based on his wartime diary, but it also includes his comrades’ untold stories. Only Winters was present from the activation of Easy Company until the war’s end. This is their story, told in his words for the first time.
Major Dick Winters was born in Pennsylvania in 1918 and graduated from Franklin & Marshall College in 1941. Released from military service in November 1945, he returned briefly to active duty during the Korean War, then spent his life on a small Pennsylvania farm and was a successful businessman.
Tom Weiner, a dialogue director and voice artist best known for his roles in video games and television shows such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Transformers, is the winner of eight Earphones Awards and Audie Award finalist. He is a former member of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.
Reviews
“A poignant, riveting story with timeless application to the study of leadership in war.”
“This riveting read clearly reflects Dick Winters’ solid character, great integrity, and unerring judgment in critical battlefield situations.”
“Its modesty, its candor, and its insights into the nature of frontline leadership and the fears and behaviors of men in combat make this memoir a classic.”
“Tom Weiner narrates in a deep, youthful voice that is easy to imagine as that of a forceful and charismatic Army officer.”
“An excellent narrative voice…Winters has been praised as an exemplar of leadership, and here he shows what he did to earn that praise and how he did it. Very well done, book as well as war service.”
“Winters tells the tales left untold by Stephen Ambrose, whose Band of Brothers was the inspiration for the HBO miniseries.”
