The 101st Airborne in Normandy by Yves Buffetaut
Paratroopers of 101st Airborne were tasked with several objectives on D-Day, including securing the exits from Utah Beach, which they acheived against the odds. In the days after D-Day, the 101st attacked German-held Carentan. This fully illustrated volume examines the actions of the 101st in Normandy.-

These twin books by the same author are high-quality…with excellent photographs and an endowment of full-colour pictures of typical equipment* Miniature Wargames - Chris Jarvis *
If you're interested in the 101st Airborne, and in particularly their actions in Normandy this is a must read. Highly Recommended. * Britmodeller.com *
This is a well told story and supported by photos, maps, fine artwork that the modellers among us will enjoy along with other bit of supporting information. Great too see this English language edition and well worth reading. * Military Model Scene *
Always good to read a detailed account of one division's contribution to Operation Overlord. The detail is exceptional and fascinating. * Books Monthly *
I happen to really like what Histoire & Collections and other publishers across the Channel have been doing and welcome the opportunity to see their books in English, especially when they cover French subjects. * War History Online *
A fine compilation of text, photos, artwork and maps, I thoroughly recommend this book to the enthusiast, modeller and armchair historian. * Scale Military Modelling International Magazine *
This is is a condensed "Band of Brothers" with profiles of Richard Winters and Easy company as well as the German and American Generals . The descripion of the battles such as Carentan are as clear as you need them to be. I would suggest this series of books Men, Battles, Weapons would be the ideal starting place for sixth formers taking history of WW2 to start whilst still providing interest to the older reader. I am so pleased to have been able to review it." - 5 stars. * Army Rumour Service *
