The Hutchinson Atlas of World War II Battle Plans

ThisAtlascontrasts 21 World War II battle plans with their actual outcome. Each battle is covered in an in-depth essay that is complemented by original maps, producing fresh insight into the technical aspects of warfare that drove the last worldwide conflict of the twentieth century. Placing individual battles in context, an introductory essay by the editor provides a strategic overview of the whole of the war. The battles are thereafter presented in seven sections: The Armored Blitzkreigs, The Amphibious Landings, The Slogging Matches, The Airpower Factor, The War at Sea, Airborne Assault, and The City Battles. Each section starts with an introductory essay on the common theme of the group.
