The devastating December, 1944, conflict between Hitler's forces on one side against Eisenhower's and Patton's involved some of the most intense fighting of the war. This audiobook recreates the dramatic, crucial narrative of ferocious battle. "A particularly poignant saga of men in war."—Booklist

"War is hell," said General Sherman – but his famous observation is an understatement when one considers the carnage of WWI. This brilliant history traces the tragic last day of that famously wasteful war, when generals' willful ambition and idiocy resulted in the deaths of 11,000 men, more than died on D-Day. "He ably encapsulates the whole conflict... first-rate."—Kirkus Reviews

Why and how have societies waged war in the past two thousand years? Keegan starts from the premise that all civilizations owe their origins to warmaking, and examines all the world's great warrior cultures through the full historical sweep of armed conflict. He explains why honor has always been a soldierly virtue, and why warfare has always had a singular hold on the imagination.

The Algerian War lasted from 1954 to 1962. In addition to causing the fall of six French governments, more than a million Muslim Algerians died in the conflict and as many European settlers were driven into exile. Above all, the war was marked by an unholy marriage of revolutionary terror and state torture. "[Adams'] strong, almost stern tone, good pacing, and vigorous, nuanced voice help draw one through the complex story."—AudioFile
