Description

Eisenhower and Berlin, 1945: The Decision to Halt at the ElbeBehind this decision lay another. Whose forces would be the first to reach Berlin? General Dwight David Eisenhower, supreme commander of the British and American armies, chose to halt at the Elbe River and leave Berlin to the Red Army. Could he have beaten the Russians to Berlin? If so, why didn't he? If he had, would the Berlin question have arisen? Would Germany have been divided as it was? Would the Cold War have assumed a direction more favorable

Behind this decision lay another. Whose forces would be the first to reach Berlin? General Dwight David Eisenhower, supreme commander of the British and American armies, chose to halt at the Elbe River and leave Berlin to the Red Army. Could he have beaten the Russians to Berlin? If so, why didn't he? If he had, would the Berlin question have arisen? Would Germany have been divided as it was? Would the Cold War have assumed a direction more favorable to the West? In a narrative of steady fascination, Stephen E. Ambrose describes both the political and the military aspects of the situation, sketches the key players, explains the alternatives, and considers the results. The result is a sharply focused light on an important question of the postwar world. This paperback edition features a new introduction by the author.

These work for the Worx trimmer WG928
Size: 16 Line Spools+4 Caps, Size: 16 Line Spools+4 Caps
Recently purchased the Work String trimmer and blower bundle. I found these and ordered them in hopes they were the right ones. They fit and work perfectly. Super easy to install. Pop out the old one and pop in the new. The string is pretty durable and thick. I love the idea of pre loaded spools. It got so annoying having to rewind the string on the spool every time I ran out. Price is fair and worth it. Highly recommend these if you have the same trimmer.

Works like original equipment
Size: 16 Line Spools+4 Caps
Seems to handle the same work load as the manufacturer part. Good quality fit and design. No problems installing the string on the trimmer head. Definitely worth the purchase.
