Hardback. Condition: New. Villers-Bocage is undoubtedly one of the most emblematic operations of the Battle of Normandy. Many historians have analysed the events of the 13th of June 1944, with particular emphasis on the destruction of a British armoured column by the Tigers of the Obersturmfuhrer Michael Wittmann. Despite the fact one might consider this subject broadly covered, there are still unknown details to bring to light. Yann Jouault and Frederic Deprun present an incisive and extremely detailed study of the events of this fateful day, an 'autopsy' of the battle made possible by new evidence and never-before-published photographs. The authors pursued these leads to establish a precise and unbiased chronology of the day's events, from the opening of hostilities between the 7th Armoured Division and Wittman up until the destruction of the last Tiger of the SS Panzer Abteilung 101 within the village. The study is broken up into two parts: Wittman's final victory and the defeat of the Tigers, inviting a better understanding of the facts and freeing the subject from its persistent myths and legends. 192 pages, in colour, text in French.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. L'ultime acte de l'engagement de la 2. Panzer-Division au coeur de la bataille de Normandie commence le 13 aout 1944 dans le Tome III de la serie de trois ouvrages sur l'unite blindee allemande. Le transfert entre Alencon et Argentan inscrit l'unite dans un epuisement de ses forces combattantes au cours d'une semaine de repli dramatique. Apres les illusions de contre-attaque et les espoirs de resistance en Normandie, il faut desormais, au Kommandeur von Luettwitz, eviter l'aneantissement de sa Panzer-Division dans l'encerclement de la Poche de Falaise-Argentan. Les pertes de l'unite sur les berges de la Dives sont lourdes mais la 2. Panzer-Division parvient a s'extraire du Kessel pour traverser la Seine a la fin aout 1944. Un lent repli s'amorce en direction de la frontiere allemande vers une reformation indispensable pour une unite tres affaiblie.The final act of the 2. Panzer-Division's engagement in the heart of the Battle of Normandy began on August 13, 1944. The transfer between Alencon and Argentan exhausted the unit's fighting forces during a week of dramatic withdrawal. After the illusions of a counter-attack and the hopes of resistance in Normandy, Kommandeur von Luettwitz had to then avoid the annihilation of his Panzer-Division in the Falaise-Argentan pocket. The losses of the unit on the banks of the Dives were heavy but the armored unit managed to escape to cross the Seine at the end of August 1944. This was followed by a slow withdrawal of the very weakened unit towards the German border, and a need for essential reform. Volume III of this series on the 2nd Panzer Division looks at the period August to September 1944, ending with withdrawal.
