Publisher's Summary

Surrounded! The American army was besieged, faced off in Bastogne Belgium during World War II’s crucial Battle of the Bulge. Do you know the true story of how we said "Nuts!" to the Nazis?

The pivotal battle and the 35 plus year career of General Tony McAuliffe (1898-1975) is examined, and for the first time with information direct from his family, his writings and rare photographs. He commanded thousands at a time when America was in trouble and our freedom lay in the balance.

He helped invent tools to defend out nation, including America’s nuclear and biological arsenals. And December 1944 in Belgium saw Nazi gunfire shatter the silence of the Ardennes forest in Hitler’s last ditch attempt to win the war.

Loved by his men and the American public, McAuliffe’s good humor, military skill, and determination helped save his men and lead the Allies to victory.

Through this audiobook, we know the true story of this American hero. Without his determination and leadership, we’d all be speaking German! You’ll adore this uplifting story because it’s lovingly written by his distant relative with the help of the General’s nephew as a lasting tribute to a man who changed the world and helped us win WWII.
