Description
Easy Company, 506th Airborne Division, U.S. Army, was as good a rifle company as any in the world. From their rigorous training in Georgia in 1942 to D-Day and victory, Ambrose tells the story of this remarkable company, which kept getting the tough assignments. Easy Company was responsible for everything from parachuting into France early D-Day morning to the capture of Hitler's Eagle's Nest at Berchtesgaden.
Band of Brothers is the account of the men of this remarkable unit who fought, went hungry, froze, and died, a company that took 150 percent casualities and considered the Purple Heart a badge of office. Drawing on hours of interviews with survivors as well as the soldiers' journals and letters, Stephen Ambrose tell the stories - often in the men's own words - of these American hereoes.

High Expectations Met
I've read this book several times and enjoyed the HBO series, so my expectations were quite high with this audiobook. Do not be put off by reviews that are dismissive of the narration. Tim Jerome's sober narration is entirely appropriate for this powerful work of nonfiction.

You HAVE to pick the Unabridged version
Well told story of amazing men. Well done narration. Only better book by Ambrose is Pegasus Bridge which I haven't see as an audio book. These are such great men. Read this one first and then there are so many others that have come out since focused on individuals. There is so much great literature on Easy Company. This is the place to start.

Greatest Generation
Any additional comments?
Like most, I've seen the HBO series "Band of Brothers". I also wanted to go deeper into the story so I purchased the e-book as well as the audible version. I recently finished the book and have a new appreciation for the Greatest Generation. They truly deserve that name by the sacrifices they made to help make this country what it is today. The audio version of this book is excellent and the narrator does a terrific job. I am looking forward to reading more by this author and others on the topic!

No - I used it as a commuter book.

Excellent unabridged book, average narration
I appreciated this audiobook, even after seeing the HBO miniseries and listening to the abridged version of the audiobook. This unabridged version has quite a bit of additional detail that I had not heard (or seen) previously, and I enjoyed hearing the story over again. Tim Jerome's narration is competent though, to my ear, it was not as good as Cotter Smith's reading of the abridged version or as good as George Wilson's reading of Citizen Solders.

Band of Brothers
I love Ambrose’s work and this story is great! The problem I have is with the narrator. Tim Jerome pronounces some of the men’s names wrong as well as locations incorrectly. For those that don’t know the difference it isn’t a problem, for me though the mispronunciations are frustrating to hear.

A Company of Hero’s
Band of Brothers is the story of one of the greatest military companies ever to have been formed. It is the story of how ordinary citizen soldiers bonded together to become who we know them as today. These men helped free the world from the Nazi Regime the had taken over much of Europe at the time. However what is more remarkable about this story is that these men faded back into society without asking or demanding a single thing for what they had done.

Everyone Needs to Know
Where does Band of Brothers rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
All American's need to be aware of the great sacrifices that the generations of these men gave for the freedoms that we take for granted daily. Stephen Ambrose is one of our countries greatest historians.

Wie die Serie
Ein Unterschied ist das es mehr individuelle Geschichten / Seitenstrenge gibt und damit einen detailierten Einblick in die täglichen Probleme und Themen eines Soldaten.

Great book
Exciting storytelling and overall great book. The narrator sometimes sounds a little toneless and has difficulty’s pronouncing the German names.

Authentic, intense and moving war report
I am deeply moved by this authentic and superbly well-told story of an army company that played a central role in overpowering Nazi Germany in 1944/45. The true story needed no exaggeration and seems to have got none. The individual soldiers are being portrayed very personally, based on multiple long interviews with the survivors and thorough research. So their experiences come to life very vividly in this story.
A huge compliment goes to the narrator with his nice and clear voice!
