With dramatic, driving power, John Keegan describes the massed armies--American, Canadian, English, French, German, and Polish--at successive stages of the invasion. As he details the strategies of the military engagements, Keegan brilliantly shows how each of the armies reflected its own nation's values and traditions. In a new introduction written especially to commemorate the 50th anniversary of D-Day, he contemplates the ways the events at the battle of Normandy still reverberate today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The best military historian of our generation.\" -Tom Clancy \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"John Keegan writes about war better than almost anyone in our century.\" -The Washington Post Book World \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Very dramatic...
