Description: This book looks to be a very detailed and scholarly written examination of the U.S. Army operations in Europe in the last stages of WWII - specifically 1945. Additionally, there are numerous very interesting black and white photos. Most noteworthy - this book contains a feature I have never seen in any other book: The last inch of the book has all of the pages trimmed out to allow for the inclusion of numerous maps. Firstly there is a pocket to hold a separate HUGE color fold-out map of all of Germany. Then there are 17 more color fold-out maps, bound into this rear section. This book came from a retired U.S. Army Colonel. He was an avid collector and historian of guns, knives, bayonets, other military items and beyond. He had a large reference library - the best collectors always do. Size of this book is 10" x 7" x 2 1/4" thick.. Has 532 text pages and then the maps at rear. Photos and maps in text section are in black and white, with all rear maps in color. This listing is for one original, complete hardcover book. Free shipping to any of the 50 U.S. states. UNITED STATES ARMY IN WORLD WAR II - THE EUROPEAN THEATER OF OPERATIONS - THE LAST OFFENSIVE By Charles B. MacDonald. Published by Office of the Chief of Military History United States Army Washington D.C. 1973. First Printing stated. (I believe this is the First Edition of this book.) There is a library marking on the first blank page, but that is the only library marking - nothing on the spine, title page or elsewhere. I only wish more libraries would mark their books in this manner and not wreck the rest of the book. Otherwise the overall condition is excellent. No interior markings, staining or foxing. No torn or bent pages. Binding sound. All text and illustrations clean and clear. Pages are crisp. All maps are in as new condition. See photos please. Returns accepted with full refund if you are not satisfied. (You would need to pay return shipping.) Sorry, no sales to Canada or anywhere other than 50 U.S. states. Book will be well packaged and shipped at my cost. If you visit someone, and you see no books in their house - Run Away! Run Away! SprRm-1-FJB-FKH
