Invasion 1944: The Full Story of D-Day by John Frayn Turner

Invasion 1944: The Full Story of D-Day by John Frayn Turner

In the pre-dawn darkness of 6 June 1944, the greatest armada the world has ever seen began to disembark an Allied invasion force on the beaches of France's Normandy peninsula. Invasion '44 tells the story of that assault from the day over four years earlier, and only a few short weeks after the British disaster at Dunkirk, when a few individuals in the High Command began to turn their thoughts to the possibilities of an eventual return to the mainland, and the story continues up to the time when the Allied beach-head was firmly established on French soil. As the battle progresses, the reader is allowed to view each successive wave as it lands, follow the developing battle line inland, and keep an eye on the vital battles also developing on and beneath the seas off the Normandy peninsula and in the skies above it.

John Frayn Turner is a much published and respected author. He has numerous books in print with Pen & Sword most recently The WAAF At War. He lives near Truro, Cornwall.
