Summary

It's the summer of 1940 and the Nazis have crossed the English Channel to invade Britain. They advance North from the South coast and great swathes of Southern England come under German control.  Fiction, of course, but an invasion of Britain was planned by Hitler to take place in the summer of 1940 - how far would the Germans have been able to advance? Would they have been successful?

Additional text

"He surmises what the outcome would have been if Hitler's plans had been put into operation. The results are thought-provoking and chilling, leaving the reader thankful that Hitler's troops never set foot on this green and pleasant land"
- Leicester Mercury
