I did like this book, but it didn't seem very “special” to me. I'm finding it interesting to read other people's reviews and find that they're often relating the book to their own lives – dead and ex-POW grandfathers. If you feel some resonance like that while reading it, then I can see why you'd rate it highly, but the only thing that's resonating with me is these reviews.
The book itself is still good, though. Worth a read, at least.
