This book offers the reader a somewhat eclectic mix of accounts from German senior officers, written postwar, setting out their recollections and analyses of the preparations for the anticipated allied landings and how the events of 5,6 and 7 June actually unfolded. The accounts are necessarily partisan, written with the benefit of hindsight and, often, making a case as to why the failure of the German defence was someone else’s fault - particularly Hitler’s. Despite these acknowledged weaknesses, the accounts reveal how the allied landings were fortunate not to encounter the German army at a peak of preparedness and equipped with adequate men and matériel. The resourcefulness of German forces when it came to counter attack is highlighted as is the cost this imposed on the allied armies in the fighting in the Normandy bocage.

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars Dawn of D-Day, by David Howarth, Stephen Howarth is an updated reprint of the author's father's book from 1959. This book is about several different people's extraordinary experiences of that infamous day almost 80years ago. I was absolutely enthralled reading about the first hand accounts of that day. I couldn't put this fascinating book down! It is a fairly quick read, and very easy to follow, and because of that I hope more people will read this, because this book is Not boring.
