This is the first full-length book about the Red Ball Express, a critical, but unheralded part of the tidal wave of Allied arms, men and machines that overwhelmed the German Army during World War II. This American trucking supply operation went to heroic lengths to keep U.S. units supplied as they raced toward the Rhine. Without the Red Ball Express, the author contends, the war in Europe would have been greatly prolonged and many more American lives lost. The Road to Victory is based largely on interviews with veterans who describe the obstacles they faced not only from the enemy, but occasionally from racist Americans as they struggled to accomplish their mission.
