Overall, Bastogne: The First Eight Days is a must-read for anyone interested in military history, World War II, or the experiences of soldiers on the front lines.Colonel Harper, commanding the 327th, went with Jones to Division Headquarters. The two German officers were left with Captain Adams. Members of the staff were grouped around General McAuliffe when Harper and Jones arrived.5 McAuliffe asked someone what the paper contained and was told that it requested a surrender. He laughed and said, Aw, nuts! It really seemed funny to him at the time. He figured he was giving the Germans one hell of a beating and that all of his men knew it. The demand was all out of line with the existing situation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
