    “Book Descriptions: On 12 June 1940, more than a week after the last British troops had been evacuated from Dunkirk, the 51st Highland Division was forced to surrender to General Rommel's 7th Panzer Division at the little Norman seaport of St.Valéry-en-Caux. More than 10,000 members of the Division were then taken into five years of captivity.

    Leading military historian, Saul David, draws upon over 100 interviews with survivors, unit war diaries, personal letters and journals, as well as official documents and reports, tracing the dramatic story of the Highland Division. He charts the Highland Division’s journey from their arrival in France, through the excitement of patrol operations and its magnificent defensive battles on the Somme and the Bresle, to their final, desperate stand.

    'After Dunkirk' is a stunning piece of work that will fascinate anyone interested in the Second World War.”
