When Europe went to war in 1939 the expectation was that this war
would see a repeat of the scenes of 1914-18. However, the Wehrmacht
was to change all that. Learning the lessons of World War I, the
Germans unleashed fast, mobile armoured columns at the Allies, who
were unprepared for the swift nature of modern war. Blitzkrieg:
Hitler's Lightning War in Photographs is an illustrated record of
this awesome new tactic and the success it brought to Nazi Germany
in the first few years of the war. Drawing on previously
unpublished photographs, many of which have come from the albums of
individuals who experienced and took part in the war, Blitzkrieg:
Hitler's Lightning War in Photographs presents a unique and
visually stunning account of one of history's most infamous wars,
telling the story of what happened from the perspective of ordinary
soldiers. From Poland in 1939, and France and the Low Countries in
1940, to the North African desert in 1941-2, this is a glimpse into
the workings of a highly professional and extremely successful war
machine.
