Covers the war in Europe from Normandy to the surrender in May 1945. After the breakout from Normandy, the allies didn't just mop up. This book gives some detail of the endless, endless killing by all armies during this time. It's less than a year, but when you finish the book, it seems a hundred have passed. (

Maybe the best book on the last two tears of WWII. The many maps are very helpful.

Well written and useful look at the men who conducted the war in Europe. (
