About this copy

This is the Revised Edition of this title, as published by Orchard Publications. The title page notes it was originally compiled and published by Arthur L. Clamp under the earlier title 'The American Assault Exercises at Slapton Sands, Devon, in 1944.' This Orchard Publications printing represents a later, revised reworking of that earlier booklet rather than a first edition.

A softcover booklet with glossy pictorial card covers, illustrated throughout with historic wartime photographs documenting the American assault rehearsals ('Exercise Tiger') carried out at Slapton Sands, Devon, in April 1944 in preparation for the Normandy landings.

This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
