First published in the pages of the Infantry Journal in 1946, this contemporary account by S.L.A. Marshall was rescued from obscurity by the US Army's Center Of Military History. \u003cbr\u003eThere are few better or more authoritative accounts of the struggle as seen through the eyes of the American soldiers who stood fast at Bastogne.

This is the definitive overview of their conflict as recounted in the year following the battle. This masterful overview is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the Battle of the Bulge.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coda Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47038914953456,"sku":"9781781580370","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781781580370_p0.jpg?v=1763716793","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781781580370","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
