Rezensionen

"Mann's achievement in two languages and across sea, air and land operations is an enormous one. [...] He provides the reader with a critical introduction to, and the first sustained account of, the importance of the Norwegian theatre to British efforts during the Second World War. As historians continue to piece together the sheer scale of this most extensive of total wars, that is no mean achievement." - Glen O'Hara, Army Historical Research
