I'm not a book selling shop or distributer, but I thought maybe some would be interested in what I have written in the last 6 - 7 years. I have written so far 7 books on the Battle of the Bulge, all about the Borth Sector, in which units like the 99th, the 2nd, the 1st, the 30th Infantry Divison, but also their supporting troops, like Tank and Tank Destroyer Battalions, Engineers(!!!), etc played a important role to stop the German 6th Panzer Division (units like 1st and 12th SS Pz. Div., 3rd Fallschirmjäger Div. and their suypporting Volksgreandier units, like the 12th and 277th as well as 3rd panzer grenadier Div).

In the meantime I started to write about the Battle for srviving in the Schnee Ifel (Snow Mountains) of the 106th US Inf Div. and the 14th Cav. Grp, both attacked but the German Corps Schnee Eifel, 18th and 62nd Volksgrenadier Division, with supporting 244th Assault Gun Brigade and than the (first) Battle for St Vith in which the 7th and 9th Armored Div. are playing an important role, with the support of the surviving units of the 106th. Again the same units of the German 5th Panzer Army, now with the support of Brigade Remer. These crucial hours of the Battle of the Bulge in which US units got lost in the woods, trying to survive the bitter cold and the German Army was for the German Army, even thogh they had not the soldier / veterans as the had before in Russia with them , were the first victories in the Battle of the Bulge. I write about those first hours days, in which it was a run on both side who was first at a certain bridge, or who could get first on a hilltop, etc.
