Bound Volume No. 2


SORRY - SOLD OUT

Volume Two covers issues five to eight and includes a detailed study of the V-weapon programme with photographs and locations of many of the firing sites as they appear today. Two German victories are covered with the successful capture of Fort Eben Emael in May 1940 and the repulse of the Canadian landing at Dieppe in 1942. The last days of Mussolini are described in great detail with photographic coverage of all the places the Italian dictator visited during his unsuccessful attempt to escape from Communist vengeance and reach Switzerland. The Battle of the Falaise Pocket in August 1944 is presented, day by day, including the last dreadful pictures of the German armies decimated in the Corridor of Death. The war careers of Admiral of the Fleet Prince Philip, Captain Douglas Fairbanks and Lieutenant Richard Todd are included as well as in-depth accounts of the death of the American General George S. Patton and the Japanese Admiral Yamamoto. Many other articles appear on the preservation of items of military equipment and wreck recovery of crashed wartime aircraft.
