Operation Overlord: The Allied Invasion of Western Europe

Overview

Here is an objective and skillful account of the invasion of western Europe, one of the greatest military operations in history. Written by a trained historian who as a soldier witnessed the magnitude of Overlord, it provides a military as well as a layman's grasp of the strategic, logistical, and tactical problems involved and the bearing of each problem upon the others. Unlike official accounts, the reader will find in Dr. Norman's book, based on much original documentary material, a study of the roles played by each nation in the Western alliance. The approach is that of the military campaign itself and the problems it posed. D. Norman shows how these problems were solved, both in the war room and on the battlefield. This is a complete and balanced study of a campaign whose outcome was greatly to influence both the war itself and postwar history. It will serve well both the solider and non-military student who wants to understand World War II and the much-debated problem of the Second Front.
