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 H rtgen Forest, in the Po Valley of Italy, and in the German industrial heartland of the Ruhr, the Allies suffered horrific losses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barry Turner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0060742828\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780060742829\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harper Perennial\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/08\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.78h x 6.00w x 1.30d","brand":"Barry Turner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44119364239615,"sku":"9780060742829","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_801def2b-65a9-4124-9176-2da63d097665.jpg?v=1687408968","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/countdown-to-victory-barry-turner-9780060742829","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
