Product Description

The end of beginning... An epic conflict.

North Africa was a turning point for the British in the Second World War: a harsh landscape of sand & enemy tanks, but ultimately a place of victory, that Churchill famously called 'the end of the beginning.'

When General Montgomery became commander of the Allied Eighth Army in 1942, he found the troops dispirited after a series of defeats by his nemesis, General Rommel. However, under Monty's inspired leadership the army turned their fortunes around, going on to win seven battles & driving the enemy out of North Africa.

However, little credit has been attributed to the Eighth Army for its victories, & even the legendary Battle of El Alamein has been consistently underrated. This highly informed & gripping account brings to light how the troops, & their leaders, won these decisive battles, & helped to win the war.
