Praise for We Who Are Alive and Remain
“Presents the ordeal of war for the horror it truly is, yet it also
shows how the indomitable spirit of ordinary citizens can prevail
and triumph in the face of incredible odds.”—Robyn Post, co-author
of the New York Times bestseller Brothers in Battle, Best of
Friends
“I've always thought it was too bad that Ambrose's book and the HBO
series selected only a few people to profile...Easy Company was
made up of a hell of a lot more guys than those of us who got all
the notoriety....This book gives an opportunity for some of those
men to share their stories. That's a good thing. These are all top
flight men. I was honored to be included in their ranks.”—Lt. Lynn
"Buck" Compton Member of Easy Company and author of Call of
Duty
“This book adds valuable and fascinating information from men in E
Company, 506th PIR, 101st Airborne....These are men who volunteered
for their duty because they wanted to be the best in the army. They
are some of the finest men I know-both then, and today.”—Tech. Sgt.
Don Malarkey Member of Easy Company and author of Easy Company
Soldier
“My father, Joe Toye, knew well and served alongside many of the
contributors of this book and shared many of the experiences they
have so succinctly described. A distinct honor in my life was to
have had the privilege of personally meeting many of these great
men of Easy Company and having the opportunity to listen to their
stories firsthand. A more courageous and humble lot I have never
met-nor ever will. Their stories of joy, sacrifice, and suffering
are America's stories and shall forever be cherished and preserved
thanks to this wonderful and timely publication.”—Pete Toye, son of
Joe Toye (1919-1995), Easy Company member
“Imagine being able to sit down and listen to twenty veterans of
one of the most fabled American military units of World War II tell
their personal war stories--stories full of pain and fear and
camaraderie and pride that most of them, like a lot of veterans,
probably never even told their families. That priceless opportunity
is here in Marcus Brotherton's fascinating collection of oral
histories by a remarkable group of American heroes. Be amazed, be
humbled.”—Flint Whitlock Pulitzer-nominated author and military
historian author of The Fighting First: The Untold Story of the Big
Red One on D- Day
