COULOIR DE LA MORT: FALAISE-ARGENTAN 1944

A crucial new work about the final moments of the Battle of Normandy. Fought from 12th–21st August 1944, The Battle of the Falaise Pocket was the decisive engagement of the Battle of Normandy, resulting in the destruction of the bulk of Germany's forces west of the River Seine and opening the way to Paris and the German border. By 22nd August, all German forces west of the Allied lines were dead or in captivity.

In this fantastically detailed, high-quality book, Bernage describes the apocalyptic vision of the Battle of Normandy and takes the reader right to the heart of the inferno of the Falaise-Argentan pocket, where the German losses were huge and the Allies achieved a decisive victory.
