Gives short shrift to the war in Italy and elsewhere and focuses on the battle for France and the Soviet invasion of Eastern Europe. Well written though and illuminates people although low profile tipped the scales in the Allies favour. Adds more what if questions about the war. What if the allies had focused more on invading Germany through Yugoslavia and Greece, rather than France, would post war Europe have looked different? ( ) Written from a 1951 perspective, well before the warring parties had declassified such materials as the Enigma cypher saga, etc., this is nonetheless a very readable history, focused on the Western front. For this reader, a valuable and treasured introduction to the subject, now obsolescent in the details, but with enduring relevance on many salient items. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Risorse esterne che parlano di questo libro Wikipedia in inglese (20)This classic text describes the build-up of the invasion of Europe, and the scenes at beach-head and in the bocage of Normandy. It also discusses the disputes among the Allies, the Anglo-American difficulties over Grand strategy, and the friction between Hitler and his generals which culminated in the plot of July 20th 1944, as well as the pincer movements of the Russians and the Anglo-Amerian forces which brought Europe to victory.
