FIRE Project Online Reviews

‘This new book from Pen & Sword offers a concise, affordable account of the D-Day Landings that concentrates on the key elements of the story. The book is well researched and well written, and provides the reader with a superb account that details the meticulous planning and elaborate preparations that were involved in the lead up to the historic amphibious and airborne operation. Punctuated by the occasional photos and maps, this primarily written account is well worth considering, especially if you don't want to get bogged down with all the peripheral information of some previous publications, and instead, concentrate on the important aspects of the D-Day Landings.’
