With gut-wrenching realism and immediacy, Hastings reveals the terrible human cost that this battle exacted.\n\nMoving beyond just the storming of Omaha beach and D-Day, he explores the Alliesâ push inward, with many British and American infantry units suffering near 100 percent casualties during the course of that awful summer. Far from a gauzy romanticized remembrance, Hastings details a grueling ten week battle to overpower the superbly trained, geographically entrenched German Wehrmacht. Uncompromising and powerful in its depiction of wartime, this is the definitive book on D-Day and the Battle of Normandy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780671460297\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e 50-18210\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748712022317,"sku":"1BMV-XG5S-MIUW","price":29.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/5853\/5981\/files\/618Bld315uL.jpg?v=1768393810","url":"https:\/\/silkroadstore.us\/products\/overlord-d-day-and-the-battle-for-normandy","provider":"Silk Road Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
