About this book



Airborne warfare reached its peak during World War II - the only war in
which the potential gains of using airborne tactics ever justified the
great costs, both material and human. The revolutionary developments in
tactics and equipment meant that whole divisions could now be inserted
behind enemy lines to initiate surprise attacks. This book gives an
overview of airborne warfare during World War II looking not only at
the German, American and British paratroopers involved in the war,
covering their recruitment, training, tactics and battle conduct, but
also takes an in-depth look at the battles they fought. Covering the
assault on Crete, the British tragedy at Arnhem and American paratroops
at Utah Beach, this title traces the evolution of airborne warfare and
gives an insight into the experiences of the brave men who dropped into
battle.
