Campaign of 1866 in Germany Book

John Eisenhower wrote a very comprehensive look at the Bulge, and seeing as his dad was the Eisenhower with five stars on his uni, well, you can imagine he had access to some great details about the Allied side of the Battle. What you might not expect is how detailed his account is from the Nazi side of the fight. Surely you have an idea of how political Ike's job could be trying to keep the British, French and American generals on the same page and without unruffled feathers. Amazingly enough, part of Hitler's plan was to pressure the Allies and cause some internal strife, to the point of a total split. He thought the Americans would maybe re-align themselves with Germany or just take their ball and go home. I must admit, I totally dismissed that notion early in the book. However, Ike had some real trouble with the British press, Monty pressing his ideas and Churchill trying to politic for the Brits' ideas while still being supportive of Ike. . . when push came to shove. This is an excellent, and well-written book covering the straw that broke the Nazis' back. If it has a weakness, it may be that it is too detailed in parts.
