Written by an officer and historian of the British Army, this is a campaign history of the British Army in the Second World War: its battles, defeats and victories, across all theaters of operations from the outbreak of war with Germany in 1939 to the final defeat of Japan in 1945. Here the reader will find grand strategy at the highest level, but also the reality of command in the field and the experience of combat for the infantry, gunners and the tankers as the British Army fought its way through the War. Above all this is a full and vividly written account of the British Army in the Second World War as it came to grips with, and in the end triumphed over, its enemies in the field, even after its first years of defeats and humiliations.
