(Subject: World War II - Western Europe) An account of the last major operation in the West in World War II, the entrapment and destruction of Model's Army Group in The Battle of the Ruhr Pocket. The desperate battle arose from Eisenhower's surprise abandonment of the race for Berlin, choosing instead to encircle Field Marshal Walter Model and his 300,000 troops of Army Group B in the shattered heartland of the Reich. Victory was won in a battle that perhaps never should have been fought - a battle whose result was the division of Europe by the so called 'Iron Curtain' (Published: 1989) (Publisher: Leo Cooper) (ISBN: 0850528860) (Pagination: 245pp, photos, maps, bibliography, index.)
