From the first landings at Casablanca straight through to the crossing of the Elbe River and VE-Day, this book tells the gripping story of all the battles of World War II that American soldiers, sailors, and airmen took part in, and of the strategy behind them.
The book’s core is its account of such famous and dramatic episodes as the landing in North Africa, Kasserine Pass, Salerno and Anzio, D-Day, the liberation of Paris, the Battle of the Bulge, the crossing of the Rhine, and the race across Germany.
It also tells the story of the conflicts between American and other Allied leaders over how to pursue the war, and of convoys, U-boat wolf-packs, the aerial war over Germany, the bombing of Dresden, and the final surrender of the Nazis.
