Reviews
Studded with extraordinary detail, this is the most joltingly vivid account ever written of the day the Allies gambled everything.
The chaos, the horror and the bravery of the battlefield are all here…
An engrossing work... An accessible history that conveys the havoc and vast international spread of D-Day.
Awesome... a completely comprehensive examination, an incredible amount of detail, a pleasure to read and learn from.
This is an outstanding book and should be required reading in High School history classes.
This book creates a remarkably vivid picture of one of the most important days in modern history.
