Answered a lot of questions I had about the pocket from a strategic standpoint as my interest in it has grown. Nice strategic view but left me wanting to find a book that covers more of the various things experienced by men on the ground. Something that I consider invaluable in this series is the last chapter in each book titled 'The Battlefield Today' this is an excellent resource for those traveling and for me personally as I plan my 3 month backpacking trip of Europe's battlefields. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

The battle around Falaise in Normandy during August 1944 saw the destruction of the German Seventh army. This book details the chain of events which led to the German retreat and the ensuing liberation of France during World War II (1939-1945). The British and American breakout battles had released motorised units to wage a more mobile war against the German static defensive tactics. At Falaise, the armoured units of US Third Army encircled the German Seventh Army, squeezed them into an ever-smaller cauldron of chaos and crushed them against the advancing British Second Army. The results were devastating: those troops able to escape the disaster fled, those who remained were killed or captured and vast quantities of armour and equipment were lost.
