Blitzkrieg

Blitzkrieg by Len Deighton, Castel Books, 1979

Filled with dozens of photographs, line drawings, maps, tables, and concise day-by-day accounts of the fighting on the land and in the skies, Blitzkrieg is superbly vivid military history, a book that challenges official, established versions of a crucial phase of World War II.

Leonard Cyril Deighton is a British author. His publications have included cookery books, history and military history, but he is best known for his spy novels.
