{"product_id":"book-acb2","title":"The Victors","description":"From America's preeminent military historian, Stephen E. Ambrose, comes a brilliant telling of the war in Europe, from D-Day, June 6, 1944, to the end, eleven months later, on May 7, 1945. This authoritative narrative account is drawn by the author himself from his five acclaimed works about that conflict, most particularly from the definitive and comprehensive \u003ci\u003eD-Day\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eCitizen Soldiers.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e But it is, as always with Stephen Ambrose, the ranks, the ordinary boys and men, who command his attention and his awe. \u003ci\u003eThe Victors\u003c\/i\u003e tells their stories, how citizens became soldiers in the best army in the world. Ambrose draws on thousands of interviews and oral histories from government and private archives, from the high command -- Eisenhower, Bradley, Patton -- on down though officers and enlisted men, to re-create the last year of the Second World War when the Allied soldiers pushed Germany out of France, chased them across Germany, and destroyed the Nazi regime.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster Audio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49348313973040,"sku":"BDacb2","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/178946-acb2-Square.jpg?v=1734220387","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-acb2","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
