ISBN: 9781845133917.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCovering the North Africa campaign in 1940, this acclaimed account of the tussle between Montgomerys Eight Army and Rommels Afrika Corps is a remarkable account of one of the most complicated and epic stand-offs in the history of World War II. Beautifully documented and historically relevant, Mooreheads celebrated insight that tank battles in the desert reflected battles at sea—the lumbering tanks like ships lost in a vast ocean of sand—and the breadth and penetration of his vision that encompasses the whole panorama of war, illustrate why this account is considered to be the definitive reference of the African campaigns. From describing the soldier stubbing out his cigarette before going into action to the expression on a tank commanders face as he is hit, this poetically scribed documentation is a thorough and fascinating journey into one of historys most pivotal war campaigns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Aurum Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44964133339189,"sku":"ByrdShop_1845133919","price":316.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781845133917_3a2e5de1-1693-4654-bba0-4893e585aae7.jpg?v=1792411657","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-desert-war-the-classic-trilogy-on-the-north-africa-campaign-194043-9781845133917","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
