   By June 1940, Hitler already ruled the whole western part of continental Europe. All that remained was to subdue Britain so that Nazi Germany could have complete control over the resources of the Old Continent and build the most powerful empire in modern history. But then things took an unexpected turn: the first defeats came precisely on the Western Front, and a few years later those breakthroughs that hastened the end of Nazism were achieved there again. The main focus of the Second World War traditionally and rightly falls on the iconic clash between the USSR and Germany. Yet some of the most pivotal battles and tactical decisions that prejudged the outcome of the war occurred on the Western Front, where legendary military leaders such as Charles de Gaulle, Heinz Guderian, Erwin Rommel, Dwight Eisenhower, George Patton, and others distinguished themselves. This edition focuses on the main strategic and political aspects of the conflicts and battles on the Western Front, seeking to analyse them in all their depth and to present them with a wealth of illustrative material from authentic photographs and maps.
