The Bridge at Remagen

In this amazing true story, Ken Hechler gives you the hour-by-hour account of brilliant military daring, human courage, and almost incredible luck that profoundly changed the course of the war: the capture of the Ludendorff Bridge, a strategic bridge crossing the Rhine river at the town of Remagen. It was a strategic victory of World War II–and one of the most fantastic breaks for the Allies. On March 7, 1945, a small group of American infantrymen, engineers, and tank crews secured the Ludendorff Bridge that crossed the Rhine. The successful mission saved thousands of American lives and spearheaded the invasion of Nazi Germany. This updated volume contains over 70 photos of American and German troops, artillery and aerial shots of the Rhine, and the Ludendorff Bridge before its ultimate destruction.    218 pages.
