"Although [Hitler] was out of the line in reserve, discussion arose about crossing into Niemandsland to share Christmas with the British. He refused. 'Such a thing should not happen in wartime,' Hitler argued. 'Have you no German sense of honor left at all?' More than patriotic scruples were involved. Although a baptized Catholic, he rejected every vestige of religious observance while his unit marked [Christmas] day in the cellar of the Messines monastery to which they had retired on the 23rd."

I read this book a few years ago about the Christmas Truce. It's an amazing story.
Oh, good. Well, I'll leave the wikipedia link for other people. This book on the subject is pretty good, too.
Some books have already been mentioned, but Silent Night has not. I thought it was pretty good, and very readable.
