This is an utterly fascinating five weeks when for a time it looked like Hitler had outflanked the allied armies pushing toward the Rhine and might just throw them back to the Normandy beaches.
It is also the context for the catastrophic events at Bastogne depicted so graphically in Band of Brothers. For military history fans this is one of those touchstone battles of World War Two, written by an author with a world-wide reputation. With specially commissioned maps, photographs, primary archival material and personal interviews, this is a truly controversial, commercial and landmark book.
