Description
Panzers in Normandy, Then and Now explores the lesser-known story of the Channel Islands during World War II. The islands, the only British territory occupied by the Germans, were heavily fortified as part of the Atlantic Wall. This book delves into the history of the islands, including the Commando raids, the use of hotels by German guests, and the preservation of war relics in museums and cemeteries.
Unique aerial photographs, including rare images of Sark, are also featured in the book. These photographs provide a fascinating glimpse into the islands' history and the efforts of those who have preserved the past. With a comprehensive overview of the islands' history and a detailed look at the war's impact, Panzers in Normandy, Then and Now is a valuable resource for anyone interested in World War II history.
