Description: FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE With Rommel in the Desert: Tripoli to El Alamein by David Mitchelhill-Green With Rommel in the Desert features 450 captioned images together with a carefully researched introduction. The majority of photographs used in this book are unpublished snapshots taken by ordinary German combatants serving in North Africa FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Prior to the outbreak of war in September 1939, the German Army had focused exclusively on the operational, organisational and training preparations needed to wage war in continental Europe. The threat of an Italian collapse in North Africa in early 1941, however, prompted Hitler to reinforce his ally by sending an armoured blocking force to Libya. Not content to merely thwart the British from capturing Tripoli, Lieutenant-General Erwin Rommel harried his inexperienced expeditionary force eastward towards the Nile Delta. This book is a pictorial narrative of the unfolding conflict from the arrival of the Deutsches Afrikakorps until Rommels departure from the battlefield in March 1943. We view the desert war, with its shifting fortunes and unique challenges, primarily through the lens of ordinary combatants. This is their personal record of serving with Rommel in the desert.
