This book is the fruit of forty years of contact with military and
civilian witnesses, now almost all gone, of research, analyses and
descriptions of several thousands of photographs about the Landings and
the Battle of Normandy. This book is the best synthesis, day by day,
from 6 June to 30 August, with a clear narrative, an exceptional report
illustrated with the best photographs (470), 22 armour and aircraft
profiles and above all, 79 maps enabling the reader to follow this very
complex battle more easily. The documentation, unique in the world, will
allow you to discover one of the greatest pages of history, and to
travel through Normandy, and find those moments when you go back in time
thanks to the narratives and the photographs.
