The Ardennes Offensive: US III & XII Corps – Southern Sector examines the struggle for the vital central sector of the Ardennes in late 1944–early 1945, focusing on the defence and the Allied drive to relieve Bastogne. The volume chronicles a classic showdown in which Patton’s aggressive, dynamic thrust and some of the US Army’s best formations confronted a determined German defence, tracing corps- and division-level operations that shaped the southern sector of the Battle of the Bulge.
Written by Bruce Quarrie and published in Osprey’s Order of Battle series (ISBN 9781855329140), this concise illustrated reference features detailed order-of-battle diagrams down to company level and campaign maps, making it a practical resource for historians and collectors seeking unit organisation, operational scope, and visual aids for the Ardennes campaign.

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.
