Belgium Editorial Review
The Fall of Eben Emael is a well-written and highly recommended book for students of WWII Blitzkrieg. The book offers the clearest and most concise explanation of the role of Fort Eben-Emael and the progress of the German assault. The garrison's main weakness was that it was made up almost entirely of artillerymen and supporting administrative personnel, resulting in a lack of dedicated local combat infantry unit for site defense and immediate counter-attack in the event the fort was directly threatened. Besides various morale and command issues, the book also covers the innovative German "vertical deployment" of airborne forces. The book is artfully illustrated and tells the story in real-time, making readers feel as if they are in the battle themselves.
