About product

Brussels during World War II 1940-1944

A book title from the publisher HMH Publications devoted to Brussels in the years 1940 to 1944. It is not a model and not an accessory for a model, but a publication, which is why no scale is given for it. For modelers it serves as a factual basis for the period, and for historians and readers as a continuous treatment of one city in the war years.

The historical frame of the theme

The German attack on Belgium began on 10 May 1940 and the Belgian army capitulated on 28 May of the same year. Brussels was occupied as early as the middle of May 1940 and remained under the occupation administration until 3 September 1944, when British units advancing from Normandy entered the city. Four years of occupation showed in the transport, the supply, everyday life and the appearance of the city itself, and it is precisely this period that the title covers.

What the book contains

  • A theme bounded by the name itself: Brussels in the years 1940 to 1944
  • The context of the military and administrative events in occupied Belgium
  • A view of the city as a whole, not of a single combat operation
  • Material usable in building dioramas with European urban housing

Who it is for

For anyone interested in the history of the Second World War in Western Europe, for builders of dioramas looking for the period reality of an urban setting, and for collectors of scholarly literature. The text is written factually, as a work of history.
