Nuts!: the Battle of the Bulge
by Donald M. Goldstein, Katherine V. Dillon, and J. Michael Wenger
Published 1 November 1994
The Battle of the Bulge - when Hitler sent his troops crashing through the Ardennes to split the Allies - is WWII's best-known engagement on the Western Front. This book is an illustrated history of that great battle. It is published to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the battle that thwarted Hitler's final gamble. Many of the hundreds of photographs are drawn from German archives. Donald M. Goldstein and Katherine V. Dillon are the co-authors of "God's Samurai" (with the late Gordon W. Prange), "At Dawn We Slept", "Miracle at Midway", "December 7, 1941", "Pearl Harbour: The Verdict of History" and "Target Tokyo". J. Michael Wenger also collaborated with them on "The Way It Was" and "D-Day Normandy".
This compelling photographic history examines the war in its entirety, from its causes and protagonists to the strategies, weapons and battles. Goldstein and Maihafer have collected more than 450 vivid photographs, many never before seen by the general public. Published on the fiftieth anniversary of the Korean conflict, The Korean War remembers the experience of the American fighting man in "the forgotten war."
