D-Day, the largest amphibious invasion in history took place on 6 June 1944. The subsequent battle of Normandy, which lasted until the end of August, involved over a million men from the UK, America, Canada, France, Poland and Germany, and helped seal the fate of Hitlers Third Reich. This book contains 30 facsimile items of D-Day memorabilia integrated into the pages of the book. The reader can re-live this momentous period of 20th-century history by holding and examining maps, diaries, letters, sketches, secret memos and reports, posters and labels which until now have remained filed.
