About this product
Product Information
"Die Wehrmacht im Kampf" Battles and Problems of the Second World War is a series originally edited by Hermann Teske and published in German in the 1950s and 1960s. Written by former members of the German army in World War II, it provides valuable and historically significant information on the German army's perspective of many crucial campaigns and battles. Now being published in English for the first time, each volume has a modern introduction by series editor Matthias Strohn, Head of Historical Analysis at the CHACR, the British Army's strategic think tank, Professor of Military Studies at Buckingham University, and an expert on the German army. Published for the first time in English, this is the German perspective to take and hold Narvik during the amphibious invasion of Norway in the spring of 1940. Book jacket.

...a fascinating look at the battle from the German Side. While the book does reflect the the attitudes of the time it was written, it also reveals what the German troops faced and provides a good account of the various engagements in and around Narvik., The book does provide detailed accounts of the numerous battles and skirmishes around Narvik in the spring of 1940. The maps are useful to help understand the terrain and geography. The focus of the text is at the tactical level, and any historian interested in the tactics of the Norwegian campaign or of German mountain troops at this time would find this especially useful., Buchner's combat narrative provides evidence from the history of mountain warfare that military organizations trained to operate in a specific environment stand a better chance of success in that environment than untrained units. While this strikes us as common sense, history is replete with armies trying to operate in conditions for which they were completely unprepared., While the essentials of this campaign are well known, this book brings it vividly to life. It contains a wealth of detail of small unit actions which amply illustrate the superior fighting power of the German Armed Forces at the time., ...a well written and very interesting book that would serve as an excellent counter point to publications of Allied efforts in Norway., Buchner, by way of Ancker, has presented an intensely detailed historical account and counterfactual analysis of the strategic dilemmas faced by German and Allied forces at Narvik. As such this book may be of particular interest to those engaged in wargaming and military simulations as a well as historical enthusiasts more generally., The story of Dietl's improvisation in the face of such inadequacies is quite impressive...the best account in English of the German side of Narvik., This well-researched and very well-written book offers probably the best overall summary available of the military, economic and diplomatic events leading to the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbour in December 1941 and of its inevitable outcome.
