About this title

Synopsis

Assault Troop Series
This is the second in a series of 4 books about Assault Troop, the specially armoured infantry who precede the main advance to 'soften up' the opposition. Led by the rebellious Captain Corrigan, this particular troop form part of the 'Iron Division' during the 1944/45 European campaign.

ARDENNES BLOODBATH
The Iron Division's war-hardened Assault Troop moves into battle again — as the Nazi army attacks one last time through the Ardennes.
But to carry out their secret reconnaissance mission,
Corrigan and his men must take on three armies.
Between their German objective and the British lines lies a well-armed gang of American deserters. And another army — of escaped Russian prisoners, crazed with bloodlust and fear — roams the forest attacking
Germans and Allies alike.

The Author
Born in 1926, Charles Whiting became a volunteer in the 52nd Armoured Reconnaissance Regiment in 1943, aged 17. After the war he studied both in England and in Germany and subsequently became a university teacher in England, the USA and in Germany where he was also German correspondent for The Times Educational Supplement. He gave up teaching in 1973 to write full-time and has written a number of thrillers under several different pseudonyms, including Ian Harding.
