Fortress Europe Hitler's Atlantic Wall

When Hitler, thwarted by British resistance in the west, turned his attention to the defeat of Stalin's Russia, the need for a defence against possible attack from the British Isles necessitated the building of a complex network of fortifications. Military historian George Forty discusses the construction, manning and defence of the Atlantic Wall before and during the Allied invasion of June 1944, and provides a detailed gazetteer listing those areas where significant remains of the wall are still visible.
