Description: This describes the Allied response to the 'blitzkrieg' that established German superiority in western Europe in 1939, and follows the British, Americans, and their allies as they fought the Germans and Italians in the deserts of North Africa. The Allied campaign then spread to Sicily and onto the Italian mainland. D-Day then opened a new front in northern France, signalling the beginning of the end for Hitler's Third Reich.
