520    "James Holland's The Rise of Germany, the first volume in 
       his War in the West trilogy, was widely praised for 
       Holland's impeccable research and narrative skills. With a
       wealth of characters from across the western theatre of 
       World War II, Holland told a captivating story while 
       calling on new research to challenge our assumptions and 
       reframe our understanding of this momentous conflict. As 
       The Rise of Germany ended, the Nazi war machine looked to 
       be unstoppable. Germany had taken Poland and France with 
       shocking speed. London was blitzed by the Luftwaffe, and U
       -boats harried shipping on the Atlantic. But Germany 
       hadn't actually won the Battle of Britain or the Battle of
       the Atlantic, and was not producing airplanes or 
       submarines fast enough. And what looked like victory in 
       Greece and Crete had expended crucial resources in short 
       supply. In The Allies Strike Back, while Germany's 
       invasion of Russia unfolds in the east, in the west, the 
       Americans formally enter the war. In North Africa, 
       following major setbacks at the hands of Rommel, the 
       Allies storm to victory. Meanwhile, the bombing of Germany
       escalates, aiming to destroy Nazi industry and crush 
       civilian morale. A captivating book by a supremely skilled
       historian, The Allies Strike Back is a perfect successor 
       to The Rise of Germany"--|cProvided by publisher.
