The Second World War, Vol. 6: Northwest Europe, 1944-1945 (Essential Histories)

This book examines the seminal Northwest Europe campaign of World War II. This hard-fought campaign, conducted by the Allies against the Germans during 1944-45, represented the decisive theater of the entire Second World War for the Allied forces. From the desperate and risk-laden D-Day landings on 6 June 1944 to the rapid charge through western and central Germany in the last weeks of the war, American, British, Canadian, and French military forces took on and defeated the German military--a victory that ensured the scourge of Nazism was expunged from the face of Europe.Stephen Hart is the author of 'The Second World War, Vol. 6: Northwest Europe, 1944-1945 (Essential Histories)', published 2003 under ISBN 9780415968508 and ISBN 041596850X.
