Synopsis

“The situation is normal. We’re surrounded.”
In the dead of winter, 1944, Hitler launched his final desperate gamble: a surprise offensive through the Ardennes, meant to split Allied forces and turn the tide of the war. The world would come to know it as the Battle of the Bulge. At its heart: the encircled town of Bastogne. But when the Allies were cornered, Patton didn’t flinch—he charged.

In Notes on Bastogne, Patton himself recounts the rapid planning, brutal fighting, and bold maneuvers that led to one of the most celebrated rescue operations in U.S. military history. This after-action report, written in his own voice and style, provides a rare firsthand look at how American forces shattered Hitler’s last hope for victory.

Inside this edition:

• Patton’s own battlefield assessment and operational summary

• Strategic breakdowns of troop movements and objectives

• A glimpse into the mind of one of WWII’s most legendary generals, at the peak of his command

Part battle diary, part historical masterclass, this short but potent document offers invaluable insight into the leadership and logistics that helped turn the tide of war in Europe.
