Books, Manuscripts
The largest city in Normandy, Caen's position gave it major strategic value for Allies and Germans alike. This book describes the battle for Caen, revealing how, as a result of the British failure to take the city early in the campaign, Caen and its population were immolated - a fate for which Montgomery has been held responsible.
