This visual history collates images relating to all aspects of D-Day and the Normandy landings. Beginning with the lead-up to D-Day, it encompasses the equipment, planning, troops and training. It also examines the impact on civilians and the work underway on factories.
As the momentum gathered, the book focuses on the final preparations in the last month before D-Day, and follows events through the Channel and naval operations, the air forces and airborne landings, landings on British beaches, landings on US beaches, before considering the aftermath of the Battle Of Normandy through to the end of the war.
