D-Day, the Allied invasion of German-held Normandy, was one of the most extraordinary achievements not only of the Second World War, but in the whole of military history. Millions of Allied personnel were involved in launching the greatest sea-borne invasion ever undertaken. Incredible acts of cunning and of courage ensured success in an operation that changed the face of the war, opening a vast new front.

Informative read, very interesting.
Any additional comments?
This is a thorough review of events leading up to and including the duration and conclusion of world war II. It is a compelling and horrific story that enables young people to "live" the history.

4 Stars for the book! I've been interested for years in this subject and even travelled all the way to the D-Day beaches in France and there are some pictures included that are new to me.
