In the early afternoon of September 12, 1944, an American patrol entered Nazi Germany southwest of the ancient city of Aachen. Three months after the landing at Normandy, the Allies were finally within reach of the enemy on his own turf. Among the troops there was even talk of getting home for Christmas. What followed, though, was one of the most grueling campaigns of the war - the nearly six-month-long battle fully recounted for the first time in this powerful work. Combining stirring narrative and meticulous historical detail, The Longest Battle provides a complete and compelling account of what happened after the first breach of the Third Reich by Allied ground combat forces: of the troops' terrible struggle across the Siegfried Line, Hitler's vaunted West Wall, and through the benighted Hurtgen Forest, across the Roer. The strategic decisions and setbacks, the incremental advances, and catastrophic losses that marked this still-controversial but critically important battle unfold in all their historical, military, and human significance in Harry Yeide's book - finally filling a gap in our understanding of World War II.
