Description One of World War II's most famous battles recounted from the German point of view Covers Otto Skorzeny, Kampfgruppe Peiper, the siege of Bastogne, and more Includes the story of the hard-hit U.S. 106th Infantry Division and based on unpublished primary sources, including after-action reports and soldiers' memoirs Before dawn on December 16, 1944, German forces rolled through the icy Ardennes in their last major offensive on the Western Front. Catching the Allies--predominantly Americans, in what they believed was a "quiet" sector--by surprise, the Germans made early gains, but Allied counterattacks combined with German fuel shortages and mounting casualties forced the German Army into a retreat from which it never recovered Editorial Reviews Review "Very readable account" -- George Murdoch, Armchair Auctions 2008 Book Description This book offers unique coverage from the German perspective of the greatest military disaster that the United States suffered in the European Theater in World War II during the Ardennes Offensive when most of the U.S. 106th Infantry Division was destroyed in the Snow Mountains (Schnee Eifel).
