1942. Stalingrad falls, and with it, the Soviet war effort. A victorious Third Reich turns its attention west and enters a stalemate with the Western Allies. An uneasy truce begins, but it will not last forever.Starting with an overview of the world leading up to the resumption of all-out war between the Allies and Nazi state, we see the all-too possible results of the Nazi Party in control of Europe for an additional decade and longer. This is followed by a detailed examination of the tactics and politics that might well have resulted in a WWII far more destructive than what was experienced in our time.Written in the style of an actual history of the War done years after its conclusion, Festung Europa approaches one of the great “What Ifs” of alternate history in a unique manner.

French TextAfter the failure of Cotentin on June 18, three American divisions returned northward towards Festung Cherbourg, where the Germans, isolated in the peninsula, were in retreat. But this fortress is mainly oriented towards the sea.The final battle would take place from June 22 – 30, step by step, leading to the surrender of general Von Schlieben on the 26th.However, the fighting will be completed four days later, in the Hague. The Americans will have taken 39,000 prisoners in this battle that was to be marked as their first victory in Normandy.

Victory in North Africa was a triumphant beginning but the Allies knew that there was no time to lose. ‘Festung Europa’ (Fortress Europe) had to be cracked and Operation HUSKY was the bold beginning. As well as a massive seaborne invasion, Roosevelt and Churchill ordered their military commanders Eisenhower, Alexander and Montgomery to initiate a major airborne assault. Unfortunately, as Whiting reveals, those responsible for planning were at loggerheads from the outset. While mercifully the outcome was successful, the immediate results were nearly catastrophic and it took great leadership and acts of bravery to overcome the flaws that underlay the concept.Thanks to painstaking research, this book reveals not just the errors but the lessons that were learnt the hard way.
