A Time for Trumpets: The Untold Story of the Battle of the BulgeOn December 16, 1944, German troops attacked U. S. forces in the Ardennes region of Belgium and Luxembourg. In the most abysmal failure of battlefield intelligence in the history of the Army, the Americans were taken completely by surprise by Hitler's last desperate attempt to win the war.

On December 16, 1944, German troops attacked U.S. forces in the Ardennes region of Belgium and Luxembourg. In the most abysmal failure of battlefield intelligence in the history of the Army, the Americans were taken completely by surprise by Hitler's last desperate attempt to win the war. The brutal confrontation that ensued became known as the Battle of the Bulge.

Historian Charles B. MacDonald fought in the Battle of the Bulge as an infantry commander. In A Time for Trumpets, he presents an exhaustively researched, honestly recounted, and movingly authentic account of this crucial moment in history. Mingling firsthand experience with the insights of a distinguished historian, MacDonald brings to life the greatest battle fought by the U.S. Army.

The late Charles B. MacDonald served in four European campaigns and received the Purple Heart and the Silver Star. After the war, he wrote the World War II classic Company Commander. After retiring in 1979 as Deputy Chief Historian, U.S. Army, he devoted the next five years to writing A Time for Trumpets.

"Combines an historian's detachment and precision with the personal feeling of a man who was there." -- New York Times Book Review

So Soft!
Size: 50" X 60", Color: Cheetah Print Brown
This is the softest coziest blanket! It's a good medium weight, and does not shed. It's the one I grab every time I need a blanket.

Best blanket EVER!
I honestly LOVE this blanket! I never thought I would be so in love with a blanket, but here I am! I’m planning on buying more to safe as replacements for this one is old. When I first got it, I was skeptical I would like it or not. It was so much thinner than I expected and the shape was an odd shape (long and narrow, not a square shape like I’m used to my blankets being). To me it resembled a rug more than a blanket. But, from the first night of using it I was OBSESSED! It keeps me warm and is SO comfortable! I use it on either side, and it keeps me warm either way. If you are debating purchasing this blanket! DO IT! You won’t regret it! Even my cats love it!

Great blanket
Color: Grey, Size: King
Liteweight, cooling, and no stray strands. We've had it for over a month and no issues. Also very soft. Perfect summer blanket. Update: Still no picking issues. I appreciate that the fabric is light and does does not cause our washing machine to become unbalanced. So it still looks good and is great for hot sleepers.

Wonderful, non-snaggable blanket
Color: White, Size: Queen
NO cat snags at all! After reading the reviews, I had reservations about getting this because of some comments about cats possibly snagging the threads on this. I'm happy to report that my two rambunctious cats have not harmed a single thread after sleeping on it with me in over a month. It's the perfect weight, and very attractive. The quality is vastly superior to what you would expect for the price!
