Product Description
"This is an engineer's war." Inaccurate and incomplete as a definition, as any cliche' is bound to be, this familiar statement nevertheless mirrors a vital characteristic of the Second World War--unprecedented dependence on the products and practices of technically trained specialists. This book is concerned with one group of these specialists--civil engineers and constuction men--whose particular claim to distinction is that their activities are fundamental and antecedent to every phase of modern warfare at the same time that their skills are necessary in the actual fighting....Full of glossy black & white photo's of the men, equipment, how they used the equipment and locations. What a great book on WW II. Hardcover, 278 pages. Front and back end papers have a map of routes traveled by authors.
