Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. THE NEW YORK TIMES, WALL STREET JOURNAL, LOS ANGELES TIMES, AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER A band of brothers in an American tank . . . Makos drops the reader back into the Pershings turret and dials up a battle scene to rival the peak moments of Fury.The Wall Street JournalFrom the author of the international bestseller A Higher Call comes the riveting World War II story of an American tank gunners journey into the heart of the Third Reich, where he will meet destiny in an iconic armor dueland forge an enduring bond with his enemy. When Clarence Smoyer is assigned to the gunners seat of his Sherman tank, his crewmates discover that the gentle giant from Pennsylvania has a hidden talent: Hes a natural-born shooter. At first, Clarence and his fellow crews in the legendary 3rd Armored DivisionSpearheadthought their tanks were invincible. Then they met the German Panther, with a gun so murderous it could shoot through one Sherman and into the next. Soon a pattern emerged: The lead tank always gets hit. After Clarence sees his friends cut down breaching the West Wall and holding the line in the Battle of the Bulge, he and his crew are given a weapon with the power to avenge their fallen brothers: the Pershing, a state-of-the-art super tank, one of twenty in the European theater. But with it comes a harrowing new responsibility: Now they will spearhead every attack. Thats how Clarence, the corporal from coal country, finds himself leading the U.S. Army into its largest urban battle of the European war, the fight for Cologne, the Fortress City of Germany. Battling through the ruins, Clarence will engage the fearsome Panther in a duel immortalized by an army cameraman. And he will square off with Gustav Schaefer, a teenager behind the trigger in a Panzer IV tank, whose crew has been sent on a suicide mission to stop the Americans. As Clarence and Gustav trade fire down a long boulevard, they are taken by surprise by a tragic mistake of war. What happens next will haunt Clarence to the modern day, drawing him back to Cologne to do the unthinkable: to face his enemy, one last time.Praise for SpearheadA detailed, gripping account . . . the remarkable story of two tank crewmen, from opposite sides of the conflict, who endure the grisly nature of tank warfare.USA Today (four out of four stars)Strong and dramatic . . . Makos established himself as a meticulous researcher whos equally adept at spinning a good old-fashioned yarn. . . . For a World War II aficionado, it will read like a dream.Associated Press Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
