History 101 Fail
Grove Atlantic's web page for James Holland and Al Murray's upcoming book, Victory 45: The End of the War in Six Surrenders includes a pretty fundamental error.
"In May 1944 and then again in August and early September, the seemingly endless World War II finally came to a close in six dramatic surrender ceremonies, four in Europe and the last two in Japan." https://groveatlantic.com/book/victory-45/ I realize that two of Mr. Holland's earlier books are Normandy '44 and Cassino '44 and that they are included on the cover but some basic proof reading is expected. Note: I own many of James Holland's books on WWII.
