'A superb account of the invasion that deserves immense praise. To
convey the human drama of Normandy requires great knowledge and
sensitivity. Holland has both in spades' The Times Renowned World
War Two historian James Holland presents an entirely new
perspective on one of the most important moments in recent history,
unflinchingly examining the brutality and violence that
characterised the campaign, and totally recalibrating our
understanding of this momentous event. D-Day and the 76 days of
bitter fighting in Normandy that followed have come to be seen as a
defining episode in the Second World War. Its story has been
endlessly retold, and yet it remains a narrative burdened by both
myth and assumed knowledge. In this reexamined history, James
Holland challenges what we think we know. Drawing on unseen
archives and testimonies from around the world, introducing a cast
of eye-witnesses from foot soldiers to bomber crews, sailors,
civilians and resistance fighters.
