Deion:

Narration about the collapse of the German troops repelled from Normandy, and then about the assault on Brest. The fights stretched from August to September '44, in a fortified town managed by General Ramcke, who had heterogeneous troops under his command, from the paratrooper to the submariner, with even Eastern troops.

Reader's opinion:

A very pleasant book, Heimdal editions brought themselves into line with current tastes with a great modernity in the book architecture and the making up.

The Bretons and the inhabitants of Brest are above all directed at by this book, but also the ones interested in the Fallschirmjägers.
