Description
How to Lose WWII is an engrossing, fact-filled collection from Bill Fawcett that sheds light on the biggest, and dumbest, screw-ups of the Great War. In the vein of his other phenomenal compendiums of amazing battlefield blunders, How to Lose a Battle and How to Lose a War, Fawcett focuses on some amazing catastrophic missteps of Axis and Allies alike.
This compelling history of the WWII European Theater uncovers the pivotal blunders that shaped the conflict:
    - Hitler’s Blunders: From the inexplicable halt order at Dunkirk to declaring war on the United States, discover the series of miscalculations that doomed the Third Reich.- Allied Errors: Learn why American troops were nearly annihilated at Kasserine Pass and how intelligence failures led to the shocking surprise of the Battle of the Bulge.- Costly Campaigns: Uncover the stories behind disastrous operations, including the Battle of Britain's shifting strategy and the bloody, unnecessary fight for the Huertgen Forest.- Technological Missteps: Examine how Germany's revolutionary Me-262 jet fighter was squandered and how the Luftwaffe's pilot training program collapsed under pressure.
