The American St. Nicholas

The American St. Nicholas

It is December 1944, and knowing they would not be home for Christmas, a handful of belligerent soldiers decide to throw a party for the children of Wiltz in Luxembourg. Ten days later during the Battle of the Bulge, the town was all but destroyed, and in the years that followed, Wiltz never forgot the kindness and generosity of those soldiers on that one St. Nicholas Day.

For thirty years, the people of Wiltz searched for those soldiers, and especially for American St. Nicholas, hoping to bring him back. An incredible true story of honor, bravery and hope amid the horrors of war.

“A new memorable and inspiring story of the greatest generation. Soldiers who laid down their weapons and gave Christmas back to the children of a besieged city. It will touch your heart and fill you with pride.”

– Tom Brokaw, author of “The Greatest Generation”

“This is better than any Christmas story. This is a remarkable, true story that, unfortunately, I did not know before: American soldiers laying down their guns in the heat of battle in World War II to bring a glimmer of Christmas light and hope. An uplifting story you must read.”

– Willie Geist, co-anchor of NBC’s Today and MSNBC Morning Joe

On December 5, 1944, against the bleak backdrop of World War II, a group of American GIs used the strongest weapon in their arsenal: humanity. Peter Lion relives the magic of Santa Claus to prevail even in the darkest of times. The children of Wiltz, Luxembourg, have never forgotten their American St. Nicholas. And neither will you now.”
