Frieser sets the stage for the 1940 campaign in France in a generally chronological manner, and pursues parallel topics as diverse as the history of the word blitzkrieg, for lightning war (not coined by Hitler, as was later claimed), the relative strengths of fighter and bomber aircraft between the Germans and Allies, and whether Hitler actually had a strategic war concept. Its identity unknown, the arrival caused the Israelis great concern because they were about to start the final phase of their lightning war, an attack on Syria. About two-thirds of the book covers the deployment, preparations and post-conflict operations; the remaining one-third is a fine narrative of the lightning war. |
