Battle of the Falaise Gap

Originally published as Stalingrad en Normandie. A large number of maps and photographs make it easy to follow the action. From war diaries, official histories, and the testimony of over seven hundred eyewitnesses, Eddy Florentin-an officer in the French Resistance during the war-has made a readable, fast-moving account of this crucial battle. Here are the stories of how Patton accidentally drove through a whole German division without being discovered; and how enemies often found themselves side by side-only to apologize and withdraw.
