Swastika over the Acropolis is a new, multi-national account which
provides a new and compelling interpretation of the Greek campaign
of 1941, and its place in the history of World War II. It overturns
many previously accepted English-language assumptions about the
fighting in Greece in April 1941 - including, for example, the
impact usually ascribed to the Luftwaffe, German armour and the
conduct of the Greek Army Further, Swastika over the Acropolis
demonstrates that this last complete strategic victory by Nazi
Germany in World War II is set against a British-Dominion campaign
mounted as a withdrawal, not an attempt to 'save' Greece from
invasion and occupation. At the same time, on the German side, the
campaign revealed serious and systemic weaknesses in the planning
and the conduct of large-scale operations that would play a
significant role in the regime's later defeats.
