BUCKLEY, CHRISTOPHER

Greece and Crete 1941

Athens, Efstathiadis. 2002, Re-issue. (ISBN: 9602260416) Soft Cover. After the Second World War the British HMSO issued a series of short military histories based on official documents and written for the general reader . This volume recounts the campaigns in Greece and Crete in 1941 that were overwhelmed by the Nazi invasion of Greece "In the campaign in Greece and the battle for Crete the tale is of military failure, mainly due to the German command of the air over both land and sea. But the skill and endurance of British forces staved off utter disaster in Greece and made the Germans pay a heavy and unwelcome price for their conquest of the crisis prevailing in the Middle East in the spring of 1941 but also in relation to the whole trend of the war during those momentous months. The effort sacrifice and disappointment in Greece and Crete were by no means vain "340p.maps.index. Near Fine.
