Good starter
Good starter if you want to know how France fell.
Dont expect too much though. Basic!
The poorest Osprey
Written by a war gamer and not much use to anyone else.
Obviously for the German and French market-an example being the lack of coverage of British tanks with all 17 photos being German and French without much technical explanation e.g. the Char 'B' had on ly 59 miles range-[as well as ignoring the significant contribution of 4th and 7th Royal Tank Regiments at Arras-with no map]. The Organisation maps follow the theme-French and German but not British. There is no excuse- there are many useful books giving these details from Destination Dunkirk by Blaxford to Dunkirk by Sebag-Montefiore.
A complete waste of time including the postscript - for war gamers.
AND I NOTE THAT THE COVER ILLUSTRATED IS NOT THE SAME AS THE COPY I RECEIVED
