Book synopsis

A full colour album packed with photos of the town of Saint-Lo, almost totally destroyed during the Battle of Normandy The German army occupied the town of Saint-Lo on 17 June 1940. Being a strategic crossroads, Saint-Lo was almost totally destroyed (95% according to common estimates) during the Battle of Normandy in World War II, earning the title of "The Capital of the Ruins" from Samuel Beckett; it was even questioned whether to rebuild it or to leave the ruins intact as a testimony to the bombing. A high quality photo history, packed with rare photographs, some in colour, this is an invaluable reference tool to any modeller, historian or enthusiast. French Language
