Beaches to the Baltic

The Battle of the Bulge was the turning point of World War II for the Allied Powers. The 7th Armored Division's desperate fight at St. Vith, Belgium was the turning point of the Battle of the Bulge. Forget what you have heard about Bastogne being the pivotal engagement in December of 1944. Look further north where the 106th Infantry Division was destroyed by the Germans, and the stubborn defenders of the small Belgium town of St. Vith took the brunt of the thrust by elements of two Panzer Armies. This is the tactical history of the greatest land battle fought on the Western Front. Illustrated with seventeen maps and several Army Signal Corps photographs, many never before published. A full color map of the division's battle route appears on the back cover.
