Reviews

[Joseph · Rating 3 out of 5]

It’s a good book for the narrative describing each picture. There is a wide breadth of the participants and that has value when you think about the scope of the invasion. I was disappointed that certain things, like the P-38 and B-24 were omitted from the narrative. The pictures are many and are often not seen in most books on the topic of D-day.

Mainly a picture book with limited text. Interesting images of events leading to, during, and after the invasion.

Though it is a decent book, if you've already read/know a lot about Operation Overlord, you can skip this one.
