Condition: New. 2004 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1962). SB. xix + 595pp with 52 maps (Many in Colour) and numerous contemporary photos.Published Price £55 The first of two books in the 18-volume official British History of the Second World War dealing with D-Day and its consequences: the liberation of German-occupied wester…n Europe in 1944-45. This volume begins by describing the origins and development of Operation âOverlordâ - the ambitious Anglo-American plan to invade Normandy. With subsidiary sections on such subjects as the French Resistance, attempts to assassinate Hitler, and new technology, - including the artificial âMulberryâ harbours, - the authors describe D-Day itself with its airborne assaults, naval bombardment and seaborne landings on Gold, Juno, Sword, Utah and Omaha beaches. They narrate the hard fighting as the Allies secure their bridgehead and push inland, capturing Cherbourg and Caen, and enveloping the main German defending armies at the battle of the Falaise Gap. The book culminates with the liberation of Paris at the end of August, and ends with Eisenhower and Montgomery poised to cross the Rhine. Supported by ten appendices on the forces engaged, the book is lavishly illustrated with 5 general maps, 20 situation maps, 26 sketch maps and diagrams, and 63 photographs.A fine new N&MP Edition of this standard reference work, with all General, Situation, and Sketch Maps and Diagrams in full colour, to mirror the original work.

Condition: New. 2004 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1968). SB. xviii + 455pp with 44 maps and numerous contemporary photos.Published Price £55 The second of two books in the 18-volume official history of the Second World War describing the 1944-45 campaigns in western Europe. Opening in September 1944, the book describes Montg…omeryâs plan to âleapfrogâ the River Rhine, and Eisenhowerâs preference for a âbroad frontâ advance. After the failure of the British attempt to outflank the Germans with the airborne landings at Arnhem, the book describes the slow Allied advance into the Low Countries. Hammered by the relentless bombing raids of the RAF and USAF, Hitler attempted an audacious counterattack through the snowbound Ardennes in December, which, after initial success, was thrown back in the âBattle of the Bulgeâ. Setting the final fighting in the context of debate and disagreement among the Allies on post-war policy towards Germany, the authors narrate the crossing of the Rhine in March 1945, and the subsequent rapid collapse of a shattered and demoralised Germany. The book concludes with the meeting of the western allies and Russian forces on the Elbe, the grim discovery of the Nazi concentration camps, Hitlerâs suicide, and the surrender of the German armed forces to Montgomery on Luneburg Heath. There are eleven appendices on the forces engaged, and such subjects as the post-war allied administration of Germany. The book is illustrated with 8 general maps, 16 situation maps, 20 sketch maps and 61 photographs.A fine new N&MP Edition of this standard reference work, with all General, Situation, and Sketch Maps in full colour, to mirror the original work.
