The Story of D-Day to Berlin Telegraph Edition Book

SNOW FALLS, ARTILLERY THUNDERS, and the forests of the Ardennes shiver under German assault. Allied lines are pushed back, villages are surrounded, Bastogne is under siege … the tension is unbearable. Supply drops fall from the sky, soldiers fight with frostbitten hands, then … the breakthrough comes, the German offensive is repelled, and the Allies hold firm. Victory in the Battle of the Bulge.
