This book explores the formation's origins, the scale of defeat in France and the campaign's considerable legacy.

Rezensionen
"Edward Smalley's thorough study traces the origins of the poor performance in 1939-1940 through the previous twenty years ... . impressive contribution to our understanding of the BEF's deficiencies in 1939-1940. ... this book would at once be added to the select list of essential reading."
