Biografía del autor:
The NEW YORK TIMES of 2 June 1940 summed up the greatest disaster in British history thus: ¿As long as the English tongue survives, the word ¿Dunkirk¿ will be spoken with reverence.¿
This book tells the story of the Dunkirk evacuation. It traces the fortunes of the British Expeditionary Force during those dark days of May 1940 when boys armed with little more than rifles took on the might of Hitler¿s Panzer divisions ¿ and held them while Allied armies crumbled on all sides.
The evacuation at Dunkirk lifted more than 338,000 men from France to the safety of Britain using everything from Destroyers to pleasure yachts. It was the biggest single defeat ever suffered by British arms, but it was also one of the most astounding exoduses in history.
Robert Jackson was born in 1941, and has been a full time military writer now for thirty years. He has travelled extensively, speaks five languages, and has flown all sorts of aircraft, from jets to gliders. He lectures on pilot navigation and advises on aviation matters generally.

Descripción Soft cover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. This is the story of the dark days of 1940, when defeat overtook the British Expeditionary Force in Flanders and the ghost of a great army came home from France. It is the story of a lost campaign, as untried young men armed with little more than rifles took on the might of Hitler's panzer divisions while the Allied armies crumbled on all sides. It is the story of French soldiers too, whose heroism and sacrifice made the deliverance of Dunkirk possible. Robert Jackson's closely detailed account of three weeks of battle, and the nine days it took an armada of ships to evacuate 198,000 trops, recalls with startling clarity how unprepared were the British for war in 1940. Contains b&w maps. Nº de ref. del artículo: 000183
