D-Day, the largest amphibious invasion in history, took place on 6
June 1944. The subsequent battle of Normandy involved over a
million men, and helped seal the fate of The Third Reich. This is a
graphic account of the planning and execution of Operation
Overlord, as well as the campaign which effectively destroyed the
German forces in France, opening the way for the Allied advance.
Including a wealth of superb photographs and maps, the book also
contains 10 facsimile items of rare memorabilia, including diaries,
letters and memos. This title includes top-secret hand-drawn map
showing the minute-by-minute position on the way in to the drop
zone just west of Ste-Mere-Eglise for elements of the 505th
Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 82nd Airborne Division. This is
an extract from the pocket diary of Sergeant G.E. Hughes, then a
corporal, landed with the 1st Battalion, Hampshire Regiment at
Arromanches.
