It was also the crucible of combat tactics and logistic techniques that would decide the outcome of the Second World War...The Battle of Normandy began on D-Day. June 6, 1944 – the day that the Allied forces launched the great crusade to free Europe from the iron grip of Nazi Germany. Tightly constricted hedgerow country and bitter German resistance held the Allied advance to a crawl – until they broke through and trapped the Nazi armies. Yet within weeks of this stunning disaster, the Germans smashed the most dangerous Allied offensive yet.How was this possible? Noted author John Prados answers this vexing question with an account that reframes the Normandy breakout. Shifting between battle action and command decisions on both sides, Normandy Crucible lucidly illustrates how this campaign moulded the climactic battle for Europe.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: HistoryTopic: Military HistoryRelease Year: 2019 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
