The strategy and planning behind D-Day: "The best-researched, best-written account [of the Normandy Campaign] I have ever read."— The New York Times Book Review
One of the most controversial and dangerous military operations in the history of modern warfare, the battle for Normandy took over two years of planning by each country that made up the Allied forces. The event is mired to this day in myth and misconception, and untangling the web of work that led to D-Day is nearly as daunting as the work that led to the day itself.
Drawing from declassified documents, personal interviews, diaries, and more, Carlo D'Este, a winner of the Pritzker Award, uncovers what really happened in Normandy. From what went right to what went wrong, D'Este takes readers on a journey from the very first moment Prime Minister Churchill considered an invasion through France to the last battles of World War II.
With photos, maps, and first-hand accounts, readers can trace the incredible road to victory and the intricate battles in between. A comprehensive look into the military strategy surrounding the Second World War, Decision in Normandy is an absolute essential for history buffs.
"A fresh perspective on the leadership of Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery and the Allied landings after D-Day."—Publishers Weekly
"Again and again he reveals new facets of familiar subjects—in part from his own dual American army and British academic background; in part by querying everyone and everything."— Kirkus Reviews
