Patton, Third Army, & Bastogne is a detailed, daily chronology of the movements of General George S. Patton, Jr.'s Third U.S. Army at the time of the Battle of the Bulge (called the Ardennes Offensive by the Germans). The official Third Army After Actions Reports were used to create this saga of how General Patton and his excellent staff halted the eastward thrust of Third Army, swung it to the north, and attacked the Germans at Bastogne within 48 hours. It was, and still is, one of the most remarkable feats of generalship and military maneuver in the history of warfare. It has been said that no one except Patton could have envisioned it and no army except Patton's Third Army could have accomplished it. Included are Patton's personal notes regarding the Bastogne Campaign (December through January, 1944 & 1945) and some candid comments from his personal diary regarding the higher echelons of authority that allowed the "bulge" to occur in the first place.
