1. D Day
A vivid, tightly focused narrative of the Allied invasion of Normandy on 6 June 1944, reconstructed from firsthand testimony, unit records and archival research; it follows the planning and deception that preceded the landings, the chaos and courage of airborne and beach assaults, the roles of sailors, airmen and the French resistance, and the human cost and confusion behind the strategic breakthrough that began the liberation of occupied Europe.
