Reviews"Rusiecki's work is an excellent complement to anyone's library, and, as an addition to professional military literature writ large, it is highly recommended."--Army History, "Set against the backdrop of the final desperate hours of World War II, Stephen M. Rusiecki has written a vivid and dramatic account of an overlooked, titanic battle between the 6th SS Mountain Division and the U.S. 71st Infantry Division. Superbly researched and a welcome addition to the historiography of the war."--Carlo D'Este, author of Patton: A Genius for War and Warlord: A Life of Winston Churchill at War
SynopsisThe book follows the histories of both the German and American divisions from their inceptions until their fateful confrontation and serves as a testament to the human experience in war, from the perspective of the soldiers and the civilians who suffered the brunt of the fighting., In April 1945, the American 71st Infantry Division exacted the final vestiges of life from the Reich's 6th SS Mountain Division in central Germany. This analysis of the battle demonstrates that the Wehrmacht's last gasp on the Western Front was anything but a whimper as some historians charge. Instead, Stephen Rusiecki argues, the Nazis fought to exact every last bit of pain possible.
