The story of the capture of the vital Ludendorff Bridge at Remagen, 7th March 1945, by a small group of American infantrymen, engineers and tank soldiers. From that victory sprang momentous consequences: Field-Marshal von Rundstedt was dismissed as Commander-in-Chief of the German armies in the West, fifty thousand German soldiers were taken as prisoners-of-war, and Germany's defeat was brought weeks closer. "The Bridge at Remagen", based on extensive interviews with German and American participants, is the first complete, authoritative account of what happened on that fateful day. The book also has a chapter on the making of the 1968 movie of the same name. Now out-of-print and limited stock available.
