In most accounts of World War II, the last six months of
fighting in Europe are tucked into an epilogue. After the Battle of
the Bulge, the Nazis are assumed to be as good as defeated. In
fact, they fought to their last breath. In the Hurtgen Forest, in
the Po Valley of Italy, and in the German industrial heartland of
the Ruhr, the Allies suffered horrific losses.
Drawing on never-before-published sources, Barry Turner captures
the thrill of victory, the despair of defeat, and the staggering
human costs of war. From the grunts on the ground to the
machinations of generals and statesmen and the daily miseries of
civilians caught in the crossfire, Turner brings this critical
chapter of World War II searingly and indelibly to life.
