Omaha Beach : D-Day June 6, 1944, Hardback Book

Omaha Beach : D-Day June 6, 1944 Hardback

Hardback

Description

Omaha Beach saw the greatest drama and loss of life on D-Day and was critically important to subsequent Allied total victory in World War II.

In this gripping new book, historian Joseph Balkoski tells the story of 6 June, 1944, when largely untested American troops assaulted the German army's Atlantic wall.

Equal parts oral history and meticulous reconstruction, including the invasion's diplomatic and strategic context, "Omaha Beach" is the closest the modern reader can get to experiencing the Normandy landings first-hand.

A fitting tribute to the veterans as well as an engaging narrative, it promises to become a classic on one of America's, and indeed, the world's, most important days in history.
