About this ebook
A concise guide to the Normandy invasion with facts, maps, historical significance, strategies, and more.
Operation Overlord, commonly referred to as “D-Day,” was the Allied invasion to secure a foothold in northern France to enable the final offensive into Germany. The Normandy invasion would be the largest combined air-sea assault landing in history. This massive feat would finally enable the Allies to deploy forces on the continent, of sufficient size and scale, to bring about the beginning of the end of Hitler and his Third Reich.
Learn how General Eisenhower managed to attack German weakness with Allied strength as well as how intelligence and deception were crucial to the outcome.
The Battle Digest summary includes all the key aspects of the campaign and battle, including maps, images, and lessons learned.
