First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. From America's preeminent military historian, Stephen E. Ambrose, comes a brilliant telling of the war in Europe, from D-Day, June 6, 1944, to the end, eleven months later, on May 7, 1945. This authoritative narrative account is drawn by the author himself from his five acclaimed books about that conflict, most particularly from the definitive and comprehensive "D-Day" and from "Citizen Soldiers." "The Victors" tells how ordinary citizens became soldiers in the best army in the world. Ambrose draws on thousands of interviews and oral histories from government and private archives, from the high command on down through officers and enlisted men, to re-create the last year of the Second World War, when the Allied soldiers pushed the Germans out of France, chased them across Germany, and destroyed the Nazi regime. Illustrated. Bibliography. First edition and first printing with full number line. Fine hardcover in a fine, mylar covered, unclipped dust jacket.
