According to the ever reliable Wikipedia, the Battle of the Bulge (BotB) didn't end until January 25, 1945. This being the 80th anniversary, a lot of attention and videos are being done about the BotB.
I have a particular interest in the second half on the battle – that is everything after about January 1st. But everything I have read about it tends to just summarize everything by that point.
Anybody know of any books/videos that covers the second half of the battle in some sort of detail?
Same question for miniatire scenarios – anything about the second half? |

Snow and Steel by Peter Caddick Adams covers the opening of the battle to mid January. Excellent read. |

smithsco,
I read that one recently, although a good book, it didn't have what I was looking for. |

"The Ardennes, 1944-1945: Hitler's Winter Offensive" by Christer Bergström has the last two chapters about the fighting in January and has good coverage from what I remember. Chris |
