Description

Description

Featuring archive photography and full-colour maps, this book offers a rich analysis of the Germans' early success in France. The German victory of 1940 stunned the world, as France, a major European power and owner of the world's largest armies, fell in less than seven weeks to the might of the German Wehrmacht.

The secret of the Wehrmacht's success lay in its carefully thought out organization and the tactics of blitzkrieg. Fast moving tank divisions, supported by armoured, mobile infantry, swept over opposition, aided by both conventional bombers and deadly Stuka dive-bombers.

Alan Shepperd's highly detailed text examines the tactics, organization, and equipment of the Allied and German forces, providing a daily account of the most crucial period of the battle.
