Finally finished Glantz's When Titans Clashed. I will definitely get other books by him - that was excellent [&o].
Books by Glantz himself are heavy reading, (Which I like). Those written with Jonathan House are as good, but less heavy.
Interesting. I did not find this heavy reading at all - quite the reverse (that said its only one book and I have yet to read any of his other works).
I must say thought find it difficult to describe an author's style exactly and what makes an author readable and what makes for a miserable experience. All I know is I can get to the end of the first page and know whether I am going to be able to continue or not; Neptune's Inferno - awful, The Road to Stalingrad and Gallipoli ditto.
I have enjoyed all of David Glantz's books, but you like you said warspite1 "Glantz...heavy reading".
Currently I am luxuriating in Swann's Way by Marcel Proust.
