"Steven J. Zaloga is well known by both historians and modelers alike for his well-researched books and articles. This is one of his better books; his writing style well-honed and quite readable. The book is further enhanced by quality period photos and the superb illustrations and maps of Steve Noon. His portrayals of action events really shows what it was like to be fighting in this portion of the conflict. It is another superb Osprey title of an important WWII campaign. Like all Osprey titles, it is one that you can buy with confidence that you are getting the best." --Scott Van Aken, modelingmadness.com "A specific, important title military collections will relish." --California Bookwatch (July 2007) "...is well written and quite thought-provoking for those interested in the potential of a fortified line." --Coastal Defense Journal
