""Doing Battle is a valuable tool to students of World War II and military history in general. It plays a similar role to The Diary of Anne Frank, joining a class of war literature forever personalizing the terror, triumphs, and tribulations for those fortunate enough not to witness them. While his memoir is certainly not an all encompassing account of the war, Fussell sees its value to historians in the way that it "sets a tone through which the war can be understood." Without doubt, Doing Battle adds another dimension to World War II as it exists in print, contributing to the multiplicity of perspective so necessary to a proper understanding of any historical event.
