Steven J. Zaloga's Battle of the Bulge recounts the last major German offensive in the West during the bitter winter of 1944–45, a vast and costly clash that almost split the Allied line. Zaloga follows the Ardennes assault from the initial three-army drive through weak American positions at St Vith and Elsenborn Ridge to Hitler's concentration of Panzer forces and the shift to Manteuffel's 5th Panzer Army; he chronicles the green US 106th Division's collapse, the desperate stand of the 101st Airborne at Bastogne, and the ebb and flow of offensive and counteroffensive operations that, despite German failure, slowed the Allies and affected postwar boundaries.
Presented as a campaign history and operational/tactical study (ISBN 9781849081658), this edition focuses on forces, command decisions, equipment and detailed battle narratives and is illustrated with campaign and battlefield maps, battle diagrams and period photographs typical of Osprey-style studies. Authored by Steven J. Zaloga, the book offers a compact, evidence-driven analysis of German strategy and the American response—ideal for readers seeking both narrative and operational insights.

Before you enlist a new title into your personal library, check the Condition Report below to see how much action these volumes have seen:
New: Fresh Out of Bootcamp
Flawless and untested. This book is in pristine, new condition and ready for its first assignment.
Like New: Light Combat Experience
Almost new and in great shape. It has clearly been read before and is ready to fight again, but it shows very little wear from its time in the field.
Good: A Few Scars or Shell Shock
A reliable veteran. The book might have some bent corners or a dust cover with a few scratches, but it’s still sturdy and standing tall.
Fair: Battle-Hardened
Visible signs of a long campaign. Expect some stains, bent pages, and perhaps some minor tears on the cover. It’s seen the trenches, but the intel inside is still solid.
Poor: Survived Iwo Jima
This one has been through the meat grinder. It carries noticeable damage, heavy staining, or significant wear—but like any old soldier, it would love to be read one last time before it retires.
