Product Description
For a few brief days in August 1944 the world turned its attention to Brittany, but soon all eyes focused on the drive into the heart of France. Yet, Patton’s other tank drive to the west, and the siege of the ports of Brittany, were crucial on the logistical plans for the Allied Armies in Europe. This book covers the astounding armored thrusts of the 4th and 6th Armored Divisions, as well as General Ernest’s cavalry Task Force A, into Brittany.
