Fighting German Tanks During the Battle of France

This is a fascinating first-hand account of an officer in a small motorized anti-tank unit that tried to harry and slow down the invasion of France by the German war machine in early World War II.

Fighting Germans, sleep fatigue, and spies, French and British units lost many men. Gerard gives an honest appraisal of the situation, noting difficulties with red tape and inexperienced higher-ranking officers.

This book is easy-to-read, and a great introduction to an important point in world history.
