About this title

From the Back Cover:

The Battle of the Bulge - when Hitler sent his troops crashing through the Ardennes to split the Allied forces - was one of the most critical engagements of World War II. This is the illustrated history of the bitter struggle in which the German demand to surrender Bastogne was met with Brig. Gen. Anthony C. McAuliffe's emphatic refusal, "Nuts!" Such stalwart resistance ultimately brought the German offensive to a standstill. Nuts! The Battle of the Bulge commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the great battle that thwarted Hitler's final gamble in western Europe. Arranged in an accessible documentary-style format, the extensive collection of photographs and authoritative text make this book a unique and compelling work.
