Following the destruction of the RAF fighter forces, the sweeping of the Channel of mines, and the wearing down of the Royal Naval defenders, two German army groups were set to storm the beaches of southern England. Despite near-constant British fears from August to October, the invasion never took place after first being postponed to spring 1941 before finally being abandoned entirely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRobert Forcyzk, author of \u003ci\u003eWhere the Iron Crosses Grow\u003c\/i\u003e, looks beyond the traditional British account of Operation\u003ci\u003e Sea Lion\u003c\/i\u003e, complete with plucky Home Guards and courageous Spitfire pilots, at the real scale of German ambition, plans and capabilities.
