Summary
After the success of D-Day and then the sweep across France, the allies are taking a pause in the days before Christmas, 1944, planning for their final drive into Germany. What they don't know is that Hitler has secretly mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops to launch a major sneak offensive on his Western front. The Battle of the Bulge is the 40-day stand against Germany’s last major attempt to isolate and overpower Allied forces—the biggest, deadliest battle of the war in Europe.
Flashing between General Dwight Eisenhower’s Supreme Headquarters in Versailles and Hitler's infamous Eagle's Nest—and featuring new, first-hand accounts from American soldiers on the front lines—Emmy and Peabody Award–winning journalist Chris Wallace offers a front-row seat to the Allied Powers’ dramatic stand against the Nazis’ desperate gamble. Countdown Battle of the Bulge tells heroic stories through deep research and interviews with members of the Greatest Generation—who fought through foot-high snow and subzero conditions, and who shared their accounts of one of the most pivotal victories of the war's final year.
