Book excerpt: The purpose of the book is to show the ugliness and brutality of war, and to show the important part the infantry soldiers play in the defense of our country.
"Much has been written about heroes these days. No doubt the efforts and sacrifices of New York firemen and policemen qualify them as authentic heroes. Heroes of a different sort have defended our country in wars past, yet many acts of courage and sacrifice went unreported. A recent book written and published by Sgt. Andy Giambroni rectifies some such omissions.
We know Andy as a very successful, now retired, veterinarian. He and his older brother Joe operated a clinic on Luther Road for many a year and both were permanent fixtures at Round-Up and Bull Sale events.
Andy's book, Odor of War, is a graphic portrait of an infantry man in World War II. He writes, 'The purpose of this book is to show the brutality and ugliness of war. It also serves to show the important part infantry soldiers play in the defense of our country.' It does that in spades.
If you viewed any of the TV series Band of Brothers, you saw a gripping yet arm-chair version of war. For a close-up, in-your-face experience however, check out Andy's first person account. It is non-fiction at its best." To read more please refer to this site http://bookstore.trafford.com/Products/SKU-000154741/Odor-of-War.aspx
