Invasion of Germany – Player aids and historical background

[vince hughes]

I think this is an excellent effort, especially in a campaign I have a lot of interest in.

I have not seen the Osprey efforts, but as short as they are, maybe I should invest. However, if you (Bluebell) were looking for other interesting reads on the subject, here are some I have enjoyed

"Closing With The Enemy" by Michael D Doubler (a book on US squad and platoon tactics)

"The Longest Battle" by Harry Yeide (this is where the 50 scenarios are drawn from)

"Assault On Germany" by Ken Ford (straight-forward read)

"WestWall" & "Battle of the Hurtgen" by Charles Whiting (not incisive, but useful train reads)

BTW _ Your tag "Bluebell" ............... not from near Maidstone are you ?
