 VICTORY IN EUROPE.....D-DAY TO V-E DAY: FIRST TIME IN FULL COLOUR VICTORY IN EUROPE IS THE FIRST AND ONLY ALL-COLOUR PORTRAYAL OF THE MOMENTOUS EVENTS THAT OCCURRED IN EUROPE BETWEEN D-DAY IN 1944 AND V-E DAY IN 1945. A LANDMARK IN THE HISTORY OF MILITARY PUBLISHING, THESE UNIQUE PHOTOGRAPHS HAVE BEEN TAKEN FROM RECENTLY DISCOVERED FILM MADE DURING THE LAST YEAR OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR BY THE AWARD-WINNING HOLLYWOOD DIRECTOR, GEORGE STEVENS. EARLY IN 1944 STEVENS WAS ASKED BY GENERAL EISENHOWER TO ORGANIZE A FILM UNIT WHITCH WOULD TRAVEL WITH THE ALLIED ARMIES DURING THE LANDINGS IN FRANCE AND FOLLOW THEIR CAMPAIGN IN EUROPE. IN ADDITION TO THE UNIT'S OFFICIAL COVERAGE OF THE WAR, STEVENS RECORDED THESE HISTORIC EVENTS HIMSELF ON COLOUR FILM, WHICH WAS THEN SENT TO CALIFORNIA WHERE IT REMAINED FOR NEARLY FORTY YEARS. VICTORY IN EUROPE IS INTRODUCED BY GEORGE STEVENS, Jr. WHO EXPLAINS HOW HIS FATHER MADE THE FILM AND TELLS THE STORY OF ITS REDISCOVERY. ACCOMPANIED BY AN AUTHORITATIVE COMMENTARY BY BRITAIN'S LEADING WAR HISTORIAN MAX HASTINGS, AND NINE INFORMATIVE MAPS, THESE PICTURES TELL THE STORY OF THE STRUGGLE FOR EUROPE; FROM D-DAY AND THE GREATEST NAVAL INVASION IN HISTORY TO THE LIBERATION OF PARIS, FROM THE ARDENNES AND THE BATTLE OF A MILLION TOOPS TO THE HORROR OF THE CONCENTRATION CAMPS AND THE FINAL COLLAPSE OF THE NAZI REGIME. AFTER SIX YEARS, VICTORY WAS FINALLY WON IN EUROPE.
