The 193rd Glider Infantry Regiment in the Ardennes. Résistance Libération collection, Richard Frognier.

Drawing on research in official archives and interviews with veterans, Richard Frognier retraces the forgotten story of ordinary young men swept up in the turmoil of the greatest conflict humanity has ever known. This lavishly illustrated volume chronicles the daily life of these American airborne troops and the feats of arms they accomplished during the Battle of the Bulge.
