Race to the Rhine

Liberating France and the Low Countries 1944-45

Beschreibung

The speed of the German Blitzkrieg in 1940 and the relative ease with which they brushed aside Allied defenses meant four years of occupation. But in June 1944-this time with American forces-the Allies finally returned for a rematch.
