A History of Blitzkrieg chronicles one of the most decisive and terrifying military doctrines of the twentieth century — the lightning-fast offensive strategy that allowed Nazi Germany to overwhelm Europe in the opening years of World War II. Bryan Perrett presents a comprehensive account of Blitzkrieg's tactical evolution, tracing its roots from the stormtrooper tactics of WWI through to the armoured thrusts that shattered Allied defences in France, Poland, and the Soviet Union. With the authority of a seasoned military historian, Perrett details the coordination of tanks, motorised infantry, and air power that made the Wehrmacht's early campaigns so devastatingly effective. Carrying a foreword by General Sir John Hackett, this authoritative volume argues that Blitzkrieg was as much a doctrine of psychological shock as it was of physical force, offering a rigorous and absorbing study for students of military strategy and WWII history alike.
