Dark December (Annotated): The Full Account of the Battle of the Bulge
No Customer Reviews
Dark December is Robert E. Merriam's detailed chronicle of the Battle of the Bulge, the German Army's last major offensive of World War 2. Captain Merriam was chief of the Ardennes section of the U.S. Army and his dazzling narrative is one of the most famous first-hand accounts of the conflict. Presented from both Allied and German viewpoints, Dark December examines events leading up to the offensive, the massive engagement of German forces against unprepared American units, and finally the turning back of the defeated German Wehrmacht. " Dark December occupies a distinguished place among war books. Every paragraph is based upon evidence, not flimsy wartime rumors. Technical enough for the professional, accurate enough for the historian... it is lucid and understandable for the general reader." - New York Herald Tribune "If other [World War 2] veterans can maintain Mr. Merriam's high standard of stimulating, critical and painstaking work, we will be fortunate. Dark December can be heartily recommended to anyone faintly interested in World War 2." - The New York Times *Includes annotations and original photographs from World War 2.
