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".
