4.0 out of 5 stars
US Infantry trying to survive German assaults,
By george saussy iii "Pete Saussy" (Litchfield Beach, SC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Against the Panzers: United States Infantry Versus German Tanks, 1944-1945, a History of (Paperback)
An odd book: A semi-formal description of the phenomenon of US Army Infantry being assaulted by German Forces in selected actions. The maps are inadequate [nothing i've yet seen, has ever been adequate, so that's not a criticism, more a wish], the narrative reads like official award citations, since most of the named participants seem to have been medal-winners. The best are some of the non-official sources, interviews with participants and visits to the battleground are compelling; in one footnote, even humorous [cows used to confuse german tank, prompts "bovinatarian" response by TC]. I enjoyed it but would have liked it even more if the authors had written in a less dry style. Recommended for the combat buff.
