Battle of the Bulge 70th Anniversary: The Books

Seventy years ago today, on December 16, 1944, the brutal and bloody winter battle known to Americans as the Battle of the Bulge began when German forces launched a massive surprise counterattack through the Ardennes forests of Belgium—the Ardennes Offensive. 

Three of my books tell the story of a desperate and doomed German secret mission during the battle: English-speaking but mostly unprepared German soldiers infiltrated the shocked American front lines disguised as Americans in US Army jeeps and other vehicles. It only made a bitterly violent campaign all the more tragic.
