| Abstract | "Dynamic alternate history of how the Germans might have won, ten convincing scenarios, real events given an alternate spin. This book is a stimulating and entirely plausible insight into how Hitler and his generals might have defeated the Allies, and a convincing sideways look at the Third Reich's bid at global domination in World War II. What would have happened if, for example, the Germans had managed to capture the whole of the BEF at Dunkirk? Or if the RAF had been defeated in the Battle of Britain? What if the Red Army had really been shattered in the summer of 1941 or if Axis forces had achieved the conquest of North Africa? Imagine the terrible possibilities presented to Germany had Turkey decided to join the Axis or if Hitler's minions had been able to produce an atomic bomb. The authors, writing as if these and other world-changing events had really happened, project realistic scenarios based on the true capabilities and circumstances of the opposing forces."--Dust jacket. |
