Overview

OVER THERE

When Raymond Gantter arrived in Normandy in the fall of 1944, bodies were still washing up from the invasion. Sobered by that sight, Gantter and his fellow infantrymen moved across northern France and Belgium, taking part in the historic and bloody Battle of the Bulge, before slowly penetrating into and across Germany, fighting all the way to the Czechoslovakian border.

With depth, clarity, and remarkable compassion, Gantter—an enlisted man and college graduate who spoke German—portrays the extraordinary life of the American soldier as he and his comrades lived it while helping to destroy Hitler's Third Reich. From dueling with unseen snipers in ruined villages to fierce battles in which the lightly armed American infantry skirmished against Hitler's panzers, Gantter skillfully captures one infantryman's progress across a continent where guns, fear, and death lay in wait around every bend in the road.

Meet the Author

A graduate of Syracuse University who had played piano with jazz bands from the age of fourteen, Raymond Gantter was the program manager of the major radio station in Syracuse when he turned down his third draft deferment and entered the army. At thirty years of age, nearly six feet tall, and 130 pounds, Mr. Gantter made an unlikely infantryman, but in six months he went from private to acting squad leader to acting buck sergeant before being awarded the Silver Star and a battlefield commission. He began to write the journal that became Roll Me Over in September 1944 and finished the manuscript in 1949. He died in 1985, survived by his wife and two children.

    Read this book only if you want to read page after page of pissi

    Read this book only if you want to read page after page of pissing and moaning, that privates are all geniuses but anybody with any rank higher are monsters. The thing that really got to me about this book is that Gantter asked for everything that happened to him and then does nothing but bellyache after he gets it!

    Run Away From This Book As Fast As You Can

    This book is a waist of time. This was not written by a man who fought in wwii but by a antiwar anti American bla bla bla person posing as a wwii vet. It is filled with inaccuracies and I mean a ton of them things that could not possible have happened at the time of wwii. In the first few pages I new I was duped but I gave it a chance. Most of the book simply talks about (who ever wrought it) their feelings about America and war very little about the war its self. If you are interested in wwii then don¿t get this book. If you hate America and just want to surround yourself with negative false propaganda then this is the book for you.

    I liked the book. It starts out a little slow but it sheads light into a war hollywood has fictionalized. It will give you an appriciation for what the men who served had to live through daily. I would like to thank any veteran of any war reading this for what they have done for the country. As a historian I really appriciate it.
