About this product

Product Information

The heavily illustrated account of the men who served under "Old Blood and Guts" is now available in flexibound format. In 1944, U.S. General George S. Patton was champing at the bit to lead the Allied D-Day invasion of German-occupied France. Instead, Dwight D. Eisenhower - then the Supreme Allied Commander in Europe - put Patton in charge of a decoy unit, the First U.S. Army Group. It would be almost seven weeks until Patton, known for his unruly demeanor and tendency toward vulgar speeches, would finally get his chance to take the now famous Third Army into battle. When he did, he took the unit on a ten-month rampage across France, driving through Germany and into Nazi-controlled Czechoslovakia and Austria. Along the way, his Third Army forces entered the Battle of the Bulge, breaking the Siege of Bastogne. It was a turning point in the war, and afterward the Third Army pushed eastward again. Contributing to its success was its truly innovative "armored warfare" fighting style, which avoided entrenched infantry warfare by continuously pushing forward, and it echoed Patton's hard-charging personality. In Patton's Third Army in World War II , military researcher and photographer Michael Green teams up with retired U.S. Army officer James D. Brown to bring you an illustrated overview of the Third Army under George S. Patton. Together, Green and Brown combine historical quotes and gripping narrative with fascinating photography to present a portrait of Patton and his men unmatched by any other nonfiction publication - a portrayal hailed by the Patton Museum Foundation as "a must have for your enjoyment and collection."

BOOKVIEWS BY ALAN CARUBA "This large format book by Michael Green and James D. Brown, filled with more than 300 photos and an excellent text recounts that story of the battles fought by the Third Army, led by one of the greatest generals in U.S. history.", THE VETERANS REPORTER "...tremendous overview of the challenges and victories involved...If only our Joint Chiefs of Staff would read this book!", LIBRARY JOURNAL "This coffee-table book covering the post-D Day war in Europe focuses solely on the Third Army. Although the text explains an oft-told tale, the book is visually excellent, with outstanding photos that mainly come from the National Archives, here with excellent captions. A fine companion volume to text-driven World War II books."
