Celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day in this fully illustrated insight into the final months of the Second World War.
From the long-awaited opening of the second front in the West on D-Day, 6 June 1944, to the final surrender of Germany on 8 May 1945, the Allied armies in north-west Europe under the supreme command of Eisenhower fought a gruelling series of battles against Axis forces hardened by years of war and desperate to defend their homeland from destruction.
Written by a leading military historian, Julian Thompson, Victory in Europe contains 30 facsimile items of Second World War reproduced throughout the book. Re-live this momentous period of history through maps, diaries, letters, sketches, secret memos and reports, posters and labels all sourced from the archives of the Imperial War Museums.
