Özet

Brought to you by Penguin.

Filling a massive gap in D-Day literature, marine historian Stephen Fisher provides fresh insight and unrivalled coverage of one of the least well know of the D-Day landings.

Although they are well known, coverage of the action on Sword, Juno and Gold beaches is relatively sparse and overshadowed by the more famous American landing at Omaha. In fact, the capture of all the beaches were events in their own right, full of drama and incident, and in particular, Sword Beach turned out to be crucial in securing the Normandy Landings.

'Stephen Fisher is one of the best kept secrets in military history. With his wealth of knowledge and exacting eye for detail, his book on D-Day is sure to impress a vast audience' Dan Snow

'Stephen Fisher... is a very rare beast - a man who can bring stunning research and scholarship hand-in-glove with the gifts of a fine story-teller' James Holland

An honest and detailed account of the enormous achievement and human cost of the D Day landings, on Sword beach. Narration was clear and sympathetic- an important contribution to the record of events.

This fascinating story closely involves one of my Aunts…. Marjorie Warwick, who was liaising between the Royal Navy and the production team on the X-20 series of mini submarines in preparation for the D-Day invasion.
There is much more to be written about this subject and I hope that Steven Fisher, who writes so interestingly and eloquently, will let us have a book which sets out the whole story in his style.
Full marks from me!

My aunt was involved with the production of X 20 the other D-day X Craft involved in the invasion.
