Biggest Brother

The Life of Major Dick Winters, the Man Who Led the Band of Brothers

By: Larry Alexander

Narrated by: Traber Burns

The New York Times best seller that tells the true story of the life of Major Dick Winters, the man who led the Band of Brothers in World War II.

In every band of brothers, there is always one who looks out for the others.

They were Easy Company, 101st Army Airborne - the World War II fighting unit legendary for their bravery against nearly insurmountable odds and their loyalty to one another in the face of death. Every soldier in this band of brothers looked to one man for leadership, devotion to duty, and the embodiment of courage: Major Dick Winters.

This is the riveting story of an ordinary man who became an extraordinary hero. After he enlisted in the army’s arduous new Airborne division, Winters’s natural combat leadership helped him rise through the ranks, but he was never far from his men. Decades later, Stephen E. Ambrose’s Band of Brothers made him famous around the world.

Full of never-before-published interviews and Winters’s candid insights, Biggest Brother is the fascinating, inspirational story of a man who became a soldier, a leader, and a living testament to the valor of the human spirit - and of America.

Excellent!

A different perspective of the lives of Dick Winters and the Band of Brothers. Private moments and stories from the making of the series. Highly recommended

Better than “Band Of Brothers”

5/5

Don’t know what more can be said about Dick Winter’s. The “Band of Brothers” book was great and this Biography was better. We got to hear the whole story as seen through his eyes. This is a great biography.

The character American ideals produce in men.

Every American should read or listen to this book. This is what Americanism produces. Experience world war ll through Winters ' story. And thank God you are an American.
