Normandy: The Landings to the Liberation of Paris

By Olivier Wieviorka

Book Overview

The Allied landings on the coast of Normandy on June 6, 1944, have assumed legendary status in the annals of World War II. But in overly romanticizing D-Day, argues Olivier Wieviorka, we have lost sight of the full picture. 'Normandy' aims to offer a more balanced and complete account, revealing the successes and failures.
