Editorial Reviews
Review
"In the vein of Steven Ambrose's Citizen Soldiers . . . this gem of a book chronicles a seldom-reported chapter of WWII history." --The Roanoke Times

Book Description
This history of the 10th Mountain Division during World War II focuses on the personal experiences of the mountain troops who served in Alaska and Italy. Feuer conveys the opinions expressed by the veterans about the conduct of the campaigns--both the good and the bad, with no holds barred. Senator Bob Dole, who was seriously wounded during the campaign, provides a foreword. This fascinating account also reveals the differences in training and strategy from those employed by German ski troops of the same era.
