Jerry D. Morelock’s Generals of the Bulge is a fine and useful addition to the enormous body of literature about the biggest battle in American military history.

– Rick Atkinson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Liberation Trilogy

This is great: One of the best books about the U.S. Army in World War II is revised, and made better. You can’t understand the war without reading this.

– Thomas E. Ricks, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Fiasco and The Generals

This is a superb account of selected generals leading American forces during the Battle of the Bulge. Morelock explores the character and careers of these men and explains why some of them failed as leaders during the bitter fighting in the Ardennes while other succeeded. Cracking good history and a fascinating discussion of the extraordinary demands of leadership—when lives are on the line.

– John W. Mountcastle, Brigadier General, U.S. Army (Ret.), former Army Chief of Military History
