It is the twentieth century's unrivaled epic: at a staggering price; the United States and its allies liberated Europe and vanquished Hitler. In the first two volumes of his bestselling Liberation Trilogy; Rick Atkinson recounted how they fought through North Africa and Italy to the threshold of victory. Now he tells the most dramatic story of all―the titanic battle for Western Europe.D-Day marked the commencement of the European war's final campaign; and Atkinson's riveting account of that bold gamble sets the pace for the masterly narrative that follows. The brutal fight in Normandy; the liberation of Paris; the disaster that was Operation Market Garden; the horrific Battle of the Bulge; and finally the thrust to the heart of the Third Reich―all these historic events and more come alive with a wealth of new material and a mesmerizing cast of characters. With The Guns at Last Light; the stirring #1 New York Times bestseller and final volume of this monumental trilogy; Atkinson has produced the definitive chronicle of the war that unshackled a continent and preserved freedom in the West.

2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Poor IlustrrationsBy ANDRE L R VITORINOIt's a copy of a book published in 1709; a British Edition.It's okay; but there are 4 ilustrations by page (too small) and the quality is not good enough to see the details.The text is about colors too; but the ilustrations are all in black and white (probably like the original).I'm trying the second one; "Della novissima iconologia" (Italian Edition).
