New book, 392 pages. Uncovered Editions are historic official papers which have not been previously available in popular form. There is a fashionable view that the decisive battle to finish the Second World War took place in a few days of hard fighting on the French Coast and some difficult encounters on the Dutch-German border. General Eisenhower's account of the invasion of Europe in 1944 presents the story of a far mmore arduous struggle against forces whose tenacity he admired and whose skill he feared. It is a tectical account of his understanding of enemy manoeuvres, and his attempts to counter their actions.
