Publisher's summary
In the hours before dawn on 6th June 1944, an unprecedented assemblage of men, weapons and machines swung into action. The long-awaited, highly secret D-Day invasion had begun. By the end of the day, the mission to liberate Europe would have made its most crucial advance.
This book marks the 75th anniversary of D-Day through a rich account of the invasion and its aftermath. Drawing on the unparalleled collections of IWM, it reconstructs the historic landings and the subsequent battle for a foothold in Normandy. Interviews and firsthand accounts put the listener right into the action, reminding us that even with all the careful planning and firepower the Allies were able to muster, the outcome of the invasion was far from certain. Re-creating the drama and danger of D-Day, this audiobook will be the perfect commemoration of a day that truly changed the world.
