The capture of the town of Caen was the key to victory in the Normandy Campaign and Hill 112 was the key to taking Caen. General Montgomery, planned to take Caen on the first day of the invasion. After some of the most bitter fighting of the campaign, Caen was eventually captured by July 18. On August 3 the Germans abandoned their positions on Hill 112.
Major How, a decorated veteran of the fighting, has produced an enthralling account of the battles for Hill 112 and the two massive British armored offensives intended to capture Caen – Epsom and Goodwood. Sources from both sides, including many dramatic first-hand accounts, have been used to produce a balanced narrative.
