From critically acclaimed world historian, Antony Beevor, this is the first major account in more than twenty years to cover the whole invasion from June 6, 1944, right up to the liberation of Paris on August 25. It is the first book to describe not only the experiences of the American, British, Canadian, and German soldiers, but also the terrible suffering of the French caught up in the fighting.

A valuable addition submitted by GJBarnett2 on July 23, 2014, 9:18am to the literature. A good review of the military operations made poignant by the suffering of the civilians, not just the zealots on both sides.
