This combination
battlefield history and guided tour book provides an excellent synopsis of the
events surrounding the fighting in the low countries leading up to Dunkirk. The
included driving and walking tours are very well laid out with photographs and
detailed directions. The maps provided, as support to the narrative, are
average. The publication is of high quality and an appropriate size for ‘pocket
travel’. Overall, a recommended purchase for those wishing to follow the course
of the battles with additional, in-depth, information that adds colour and
personality to the experience.
