Default The Victory Campaign: The Operations in North-West Europe, 1944-45 by C.P. Stacey

While doing some research, I came across the HyperWar website. It consists primarily of official documents produced by various agencies of the United States, United Kingdom and British Commonwealth governments. It's webpage listing sources published by the latter can be found here: http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/UN/Canada/ with sections on the Army, Navy, Air Force and even Medical Services.

I am doing some reading up on the Battle of the Scheldt in Volume III of The Victory Campaign: The Operations in North-West Europe, 1944-1945 by Colonel C.P. Stacey, which can be found here: http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/UN/C...ory/index.html

HTH,
Hanno

It's nice to see this book available. 30 years ago the Victory Campaign was almost unobtainable. The other two could be had and when I finally got one to complete my set...it was in French.
