Tunisgrad

Bestselling historian and author Saul David delivers an epic new history of the fighting in North Africa during the Second World War.

About the event

In 1942, British and American forces invaded North Africa in what was the conflict’s largest amphibious operation to date. The Germans responded by flooding troops into Tunisia, setting the stage for one of the most decisive clashes of the war.

Saul David explores the events in North Africa from every angle. Using a variety of first-hand sources, he positions the campaign as a defining Axis defeat that changed the course of the war.
