About the Book: In December 1944, General George Patton faced a dire situation. Relentless rain and cloud cover had stalled the Allied advance, grounded air support, and allowed German forces to regroup. As the Battle of the Bulge erupted and American troops were overwhelmed in the Ardennes, Patton, a devout Christian, turned to prayer. He ordered a weather prayer distributed to 250,000 troops, urging them to pray constantly—for clear skies, victory, and peace. With Bastogne under siege and time running out, Patton hoped divine intervention could shift the course of the war.
