What happened?

What followed was one of the most heroic—and harrowing—operations in American military history, and one of the classic battles of all time.

Faced with probable annihilation, and temperatures plunging to 20 degrees below zero, the surrounded, and hugely outnumbered, Marines fought through the enemy forces with ferocity, ingenuity, and nearly unimaginable courage as they marched their way to the sea. Hampton Sides has been hailed by critics as one of the best nonfiction writers of his generation. Hampton Sides is an award-winning editor of Outside and the author of the bestselling histories Hellhound on his Trial, Blood and Thunder and Ghost Soldiers.

On Desperate Ground

He lives in New Mexico with his wife, Anne, and their three sons. Every page pulsates with drama. Sides, an American master of nonfiction, has written one of the finest battle books ever. One of the most harrowing accounts of war I have ever read, this book is destined to become a classic.

As a veteran of the 1st Marine Division, I found his new book about one of the most desperate battles in American history to be riveting and beautifully told. Sides gets it all right, from the heroism of the Marines trapped in the frozen mountains to the chess moves of the generals and politicians who put them there.
