Struggle for the Scheldt 1944
0€ 24,95The battle of the Scheldt is often seen as a side-show, an unglamorous campaign of months of hard fighting. This image needs to change. The Scheldt was at the heart of the German strategy to keep the Allies at bay, and its control was essential for the Allied effort to push into Germany. In this book the battle is analysed from all sides (including the civilians!) and from all perspectives – land, air and sea. It highlights often forgotten but important efforts, like the Allied anti-aircraft defense around Antwerp.
