Description
An action-packed account of one of the most crucial battles of WW2. The WW2 invasion known as D-Day was the largest military endeavour in history. By June 6, 1944, Hitler and his allies had a strong grip on the European continent, where Nazi Germany was engaged in the mass extermination of the Jewish people. The goal of D-Day was the total defeat of Hitler's regime, and the defence of free democracies everywhere. Knowing they had to breach the French coast, the US, Great Britain and Canada planned for the impossible. D-Day was an invasion not for conquest, but liberation, and required years to plan and total secrecy to keep the advantage of surprise. - from Amzon
