Completely different from the preceding volume, this book covers the period from after the establishing of the beach-heads to the final breakout in August 1944. This massive book is split into 6 parts and includes detailed coverage on St. Lô, Villiers-Bocages, the battle for Cherbourg, Operations Epson, Goodwood, Windsor, Cobra and Bluecout as well as all the other operations and battles of the period. The book is profusely illustrated with an extraordinary selection of photographs, many of which are previously unpublished. All the photographs are accompanied by very detailed captions.
