TIGERS IN THE ARDENNES: THE 501ST HEAVY
                               SS TANK BATTALION IN THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE

by Gregory A. Walden 

U.S. Army officer and military historian Gregory Walden provides the most detailed look at the actions of a single German battalion in the Battle of the Bulge to date. The book is the product of years of archival research, conversations with German and American veterans, and detailed examination of terrain in the Ardennes. The author’s experience as a tank unit commander provides unique insight into the tactical difficulties of armor movements through the area, especially considering the technical aspects of the Tiger II tanks. The book includes over 100 images, many of them never before published, plus detailed maps showing the routes used by the 501st during the battle.

SOMME 1916

 by Paul Kendall

Success and Failure on the First Day of the Battle of the Somme. Much controversy has surrounded the offensive and its impact upon the course of the war. Sir Douglas Haig's policies have been the subject of considerable debate about whether the heavy losses sustained were worth the small gains that were achieved and which appeared to have little strategic value. That was certainly the case on many sectors on 1 July 1916, where British soldiers were unable to cross No Man's Land and failed to reach, or penetrate into, the German trenches.

CHURCHILL IN HIS OWN WORDS

Edited by Richard Langworth

Winston Churchill was one of the 20th century's most charismatic and controversial figures. He escaped from a POW camp in the Boer War, was a Nobel Prize-winning author and twice prime minister of The United Kingdom. He is best remembered as the astute and powerful orator who inspired a battered Britain to victory in World War II, and led the post-war nation to recovery. Richard Langworth, co-chairman and editor of The Churchill Centre, spent over 20 years researching Churchill's words to produce this thematically arranged compendium.
