Mentioned in Patton’s Prayer – Alex Kershaw

In 2023, I had the pleasure of guiding acclaimed author Alex Kershaw and his friends on a detailed battlefield tour around Bastogne. We explored key sites and discussed the compelling stories from this significant World War II battle.

I was delighted to discover that Alex graciously mentioned our experience together in his latest book, Patton’s Prayer. His work beautifully captures the human dimension of history, and it’s an honor to be acknowledged in such an important narrative.

If you’re interested in World War II history, I highly recommend Patton’s Prayer. It offers powerful insights and stories about the individuals who shaped this pivotal period.

As a local who has lived in the Operation Market Garden area for most of my life, this battle is now part of my DNA, and I have been studying it for almost 30 years. Since 2012 I have been active as a Battlefield Guide and over the years I’ve have taken many individuals, small and large groups, relatives of veterans, school groups, and military groups and staff rides on tours all through Europe. What began with guiding in the Operation Market Garden area has since expanded to include the Hürtgen Forest and the Battle of the Bulge and more.
