The battle around Falaise in Normandy during August 1944 saw the
destruction of the German Seventh army. This book details the chain of
events which led to the German retreat and the ensuing liberation of
France during World War II (1939-1945). The British and American
breakout battles had released motorised units to wage a more mobile war
against the German static defensive tactics. At Falaise, the armoured
units of US Third Army encircled the German Seventh Army, squeezed them
into an ever-smaller cauldron of chaos and crushed them against the
advancing British Second Army. The results were devastating: those
troops able to escape the disaster fled, those who remained were killed
or captured and vast quantities of armour and equipment were lost.
