Panzergrenadier Aces: German Mechanized Infantrymen in World War II
Quote:
The panzer grenadiers were the foot soldiers who went into battle alongside the Third Reich's feared tanks. Whether in the Wehrmacht or Waffen-SS, these troops endured all the horrors of infantry combat - fighting hand-to-hand, storming enemy positions, and rescuing fallen comrades - but they did so in the shadow of thundering giants like the Tiger and Panther. Kurowski tells the stories of some of the very best of these mechanised infantrymen, bringing them and their actions to life.

The Philadelphia Campaign: Volume One: Brandywine and the Fall of Philadelphia
Quote:
The first in a monumental two-volume set on the pivotal 1777 campaign of the American Revolution, this book is an in-depth examination of the military engagements that resulted in the British capture of Philadelphia. Based on surviving accounts of soldiers and civilians, the author weaves together the compelling story of the fight for the Continental capital. In the winter of 1777, after the victories at Trenton and Princeton, George Washington painstakingly rebuilt the Continental Army. The following spring, all eyes turned to the British commander-in-chief, Sir William Howe, to see when and where he would resume the drive on the rebel capital. Numerous skirmishes and seemingly pointless maneuvers finally led to Pennsylvania. The two main armies finally clashed in the bloody Battle of Brandywine on September 11, where Howe’s flanking tactics inflicted a serious defeat on Washington. Rallying his forces, Washington resumed his defense of Philadelphia, only to be thwarted at the Schuylkill and suffer a small but bloody defeat at Paoli. Congress fled the capital as the British Army approached, and the campaign to win the hearts and minds of the American people raged in full fury as the two armies marched through the region.

A couple more books from Stackpole...

Shadows of Glory by Owen Parry
Quote:
In a snow-swept Northern town, Union officer Major Abel Jones struggles to solve the riddle of Federal agents tortured to death. From the drama of Civil War Washington and a divided home front, to the hardship and triumph of Grant's capture, this novel conjures up an American past and brings it to life with authenticity and storytelling power. An Owen Parry novel of the Civil War.

Faded Coat of Blue by Owen Parry
Quote:
Abel Jones, a Welsh immigrant and Union army enlistee, investigates the death of Anthony Fowler, a young volunteer captain whose murder is blamed on the Confederates. Jones pursues the blood of the battlefield through the intrigues of Washington, D.C., where evil and good intertwine in this Owen Parry novel of the Civil War.
