Citizen Soldiers
Book • 1997
Citizen Soldiers is a compelling narrative that follows the U.S.
Army from the Normandy beaches through the liberation of Paris, Operation Market-Garden, the Battle of the Bulge, and the final push into Germany.
Drawing on hundreds of interviews and oral histories from combat veterans on both sides, Ambrose recreates the war experience with immediacy and clarity, focusing on the valor and character of the young GIs rather than military strategy, while also including perspectives from Wehrmacht soldiers.
