Description

Book Synopsis: ‘Quite the best detailed story of that great battle I have ever read … a superb book’ Field Marshal Montgomery

The perfect book for those who enjoy the work of James Holland, Ian W. Toll and Anthony Beevor.

The Second Battle of El Alamein was a crucial turning point in the Second World War.

In the words of Winston Churchill: ‘It may almost be said: “Before Alamein we never had a victory. After Alamein, we never had a defeat”.'

How had Bernard Montgomery and the Eighth Army been able to turn back the might of Rommel’s Axis forces?

Alamein uncovers the actions of Allied and Axis forces before and during the ferocious battle in vivid detail. It explains who the commanders were, what forces they had, how they were arranged and what strategies were used by both sides to try to defeat their enemies.

C. E. Lucas Phillips fought in the battle as a commander of one of Montgomery’s regiments. Yet, his account is not simply that of an eyewitness, instead, using a variety of personal and official sources, he provides a thorough overview of the conflict.

‘Absorbing and inspiring’ Daily Telegraph

‘He has drawn upon a considerable body of personal diaries, letters, narratives and interviews from which come significant details.’ Army Magazine

‘A crisply written account of the action that turned the tide of war in North Africa in 1942.’ Military Review

‘this is an excellent and possibly definitive work.’ Kirkus Reviews
