Description

Ordered by Hitler 'to hold, or to die' and to fight 'to the last grenade and round', the German army was a formidable opponent during the 1944 Normandy campaign. This book depicts the experience of that army in Normandy through its own records and documentation.

You will also learn from official documents about the Germans' efforts to cope with Allied air and artillery superiority, create new tactical methods for all arms and maintain discipline in the face of overwhelming odds. SELLING POINTS: . The 1944 Normandy campaign in original German documents . Drawn from the previously untapped archives of the Canadian Army Intelligence Corps . A treasure-trove of information for historians, wargamers, re-enactors and modellers 16 pages of plates
