Last Shots for Patton's Third Army: Book on World War II

By early May 1945, German forces were close to surrender. Many of the troops were being squeezed into Austria and Czechoslovakia by American and Russian armies. A heavy reliance has been made upon archival materials, supplemented by oversized maps, veterans' experiences, signal corps photographs, regular-sized maps, and published sources to provide depth-reaching details on the last eight days in General Patton's Third Army Sector. The last eight days will cover enemy resistance, surrenders and interrogation reports of various German generals. The book will show dates, circumstances and in many instances the names of the men of the Third Army who fired the final shots at the enemy. American and Russian troops met and had mixed relations. 41 photographs total and 4 of which are in color. 41 maps & photographs.
