Description/Notes
In December 1944, entrenched in the Battle of the Bulge, the 138th Infantry Battalion fought a brutal, last-ditch assault by the Nazis.nbsp; Sixty years later, the men of the 138th reunite at the battleground in Belgiumrsquo;s Ardennes Forest for one last chance to relive their youth, bury old ghosts, and try to find answers to the mystery that has haunted them for more than half a century. Weaving his fatherrsquo;s real experiences in World War II throughout the story, bestselling author Michael Oren brings the 138th to life in his debut novel.nbsp; Through the disparate and vivid characters, we learn the other story of this battalion-a story of the lingering effects of war, the potency of the human spirit, and the courage that even simple men can muster, both at the beginning and the end of their lives. Compelling?impressive?it?s hard to imagine anyone who will be unmoved. (The Washington Post Book World)
