This is a fully illustrated examination of the six decisive weeks of German armoured defence of Normandy following the D-Day landings. Six weeks during which a small number of finely-engineered tanks manned by well-trained and highly motivated crews managed to slow down the Allied advance. The book includes complete details of tank divisions and organization, the vehicles employed, their insignia, markings and camouflage, and a text based on archive and eye witness reports which moves the story from the eve of battle - Monday 5th June 1944 - the confrontations following the landings, the reinforcements and eventual defeat of the Panzers.
