- The novel section reflects the events of the time from the perspective of a German sniper and a grenadier.
The five months of fighting in the Hürtgen Forest went down in history as one of the longest and bloodiest battles ever fought on German soil. It is also known as the 'Verdun of the Eifel'.
It was the biggest defeat in the history of the US Army, but it was also hell on earth for the German defenders.
The Hürtgen Forest became a killing field for soldiers on both sides.
