Description

A ground-breaking account of the first 24 hours of the D-Day invasion told through incredible accounts of unknown and unheralded members of the Allied and Axis forces. An epic battle involving 156,000 men, 7,000 ships, and 20,000 armored vehicles, D-Day was a tale of individual heroics driven by men fighting until the German defenses were smashed and the beachheads secured. Giles Milton's new history narrates the events of June 6th, 1944, through the stories of survivors from all sides, shedding light on the absolute terror faced by those on the front line of Operation Overlord.
