"Joseph Balkoski is the top living D-Day historian." --USA Today"Balkoski has fingertip command of his sources, and a sense of the dramatic that never loses touch with the brutal realities of combat." --Dennis Showalter, past president of the Society for Military History and author of Patton and Rommel

From RICK ATKINSON, Pulitzer Prize winning author of "The Liberation Trilogy" -- "What an achievement! The 29th Infantry Division, specifically, and the U.S. Army generally are lucky to have a historian of Joe Balkoski's stature and skill to tell the tale of combat in Western Europe from the perspective of both the ordinary GI and his leaders."
Continues Balkoski's acclaimed multivolume history of the U.S. 29th Infantry Division in World War II
Covers the division's vital role in the U.S. Army's November offensive, which Gen. Omar Bradley hoped would get the Allies to the Rhine River by Christmas
A riveting story of heroism and tragedy, during which thousands of 29ers became casualties in a campaign that ultimately failed to end the war
Balkoski blends meticulous research with masterful storytelling
