About this audiobook
On Christmas Eve, the holiest of nights for the many Christian peoples of Europe, Adolf Hitler was unleashing the full fury of his remaining Luftwaffe bomber force on Bastogne. For hundreds of German and American soldiers facing off in the siege, the events of Christmas 1944 would destroy any sense of holiness and peace on Earth. For the soldiers on both sides, and for the brave people of Bastogne, this would be no silent night.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Full of turgid purple prose. Confused, confusing, and in places contradictory descriptions of battles. Despite the authors stated intentions, this is far from a 'balanced' look at these battles. Amongst other things, the death - or even just slight wounding - of any American is 'a tragedy', while the simultaneous death of hundreds of Germans is cause for jubilation.
