Pritzker Military Library Honors WWII Historian

Yesterday, the Pritzker Military Library announced that its annual $100,000 prize for “lifetime achievement in military writing” would be bestowed upon Gerhard L. Weinberg, the author of several books about the Second World War, most notably A World at Arms. In the webcast announcing Prof. Weinberg’s selection (seen above), the Library’s executive producer, Ed Tracy, praised his writing for being “encyclopedic yet highly readable.” Prof. Weinberg will formally receive the prize in October, when the Pritzker library holds its annual “Liberty Gala” in Chicago.
