52 pages. Profusely illustrated with wonderful photos. "Compresses into a brief pictorial review, the story of the Allies in Norway during the five momentous months after May 8 1945. With the American and British forces who took part in these events, there will remain many memories which we shall treasure - the warmth of the welcome extended to us, and the hospitality of Norwegian famillies." - Andrew Thorne, General, Head of the SHAEF Mission to Norway. A fascinating photographic history of how the Allies controlled, disarmed and evacuated the large German garrison from Norway at the end of WWII. Prior owner's name stamped atop half-title page, otherwise unmarked with average wear. Binding intact. A sound vintage copy. Book
