For much of World War II, London's Times documented life on the home front, but with the invasion of France, these photographers meticulously chronicled the defeat of Hitler's forces. They complied an extraordinary archive, yet only a fraction of the images were published. Bringing these treasures to light, the 400 images collected here depict bombed out towns, tanks, and the inevitable human cost, but also troops moving through a scarred landscape, the civilian population in joy and fear, and the daily activities of the soldiers themselves.
