by Martin Gilbert (Author)
"Ideal for tucking into a day-pack for tours of Normandy's history-laden beaches." -USA Today
Martin Gilbert offers fresh information on the Allies' use of double agents and phantom armies to fool Hitler and his generals into believing that the Normandy landings were a mere diversion to mask a far larger assault elsewhere. He reveals how British codebreakers provided astonishingly accurate information on German strategy and troop movements, and, with twenty-seven new maps and vivid, firsthand British, American, and Canadian accounts of the horror and heroism of D-Day, Gilbert sheds new light on one of the greatest achievements in military history.Back Jacket
"Ideal for tucking into a day-pack for tours of Normandy's history-laden beaches."
--USA Today
"The finest short overview of Operation Overlord--the greatest amphibious assault in the history of warfare--is undoubtedly Sir Martin Gilbert's D-Day, a stunningly impressive account. As might be expected from Churchill's biographer, Gilbert is masterly on the grand strategic vision behind the Allied invasion of Normandy, but he also concentrates on the tremendous human story on the ground. Two sentences from this book actually moved me to tears when I read them, coming soon after a harrowing description of the often hand-to-hand fighting two miles behind the Sword and Gold beaches."
--Andrew Roberts, Evening Standard (London)
