Reviews for Fall Gelb 1940 (2)
2 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good introduction to a surprisingly little-written about campaign (in English at least). Covers most of the areas of interest and is particularly good on the campaign in the Netherlands and the first mass use of the paratrooper arm.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A great book. Engaging, well-written, fast-paced. Reflects the drama of 1940.
