"In contrast to other histories, this provides a description of the operation from a strategy perspective, detailing overlapping struggles and results to fill in many gaps. Any military library specializing in World War II needs this." --The Midwest Book Review "If you want insight into an operation that has not really had that much written about it, or just a fascinating read, then this is the book for you. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and I'm sure you will as well." --Scott Van Aken, Modeling Madness
