Product Information

Stephen E. Ambrose's D-Day is the definitive history of World War II's most pivotal battle, a day that changed the course of history. D-Day is the epic story of men at the most demanding moment of their lives, when the horrors, complexities, and triumphs of life are laid bare. Distinguished historian Stephen E. Ambrose portrays the faces of courage and heroism, fear and determination--what Eisenhower called "the fury of an aroused democracy"--that shaped the victory of the citizen soldiers whom Hitler had disparaged.Drawing on more than 1,400 interviews with American, British, Canadian, French, and German veterans, Ambrose reveals how the original plans for the invasion had to be abandoned, and how enlisted men and junior officers acted on their own initiative when they realized that nothing was as they were told it would be. The action begins at midnight, June 5/6, when the first British and American airborne troops jumped into France. It ends at midnight June 6/7. Focusing on those pivotal twenty-four hours, it moves from the level of Supreme Commander to that of a French child, from General Omar Bradley to an American paratrooper, from Field Marshal Montgomery to a German sergeant. Ambrose's D-Day is the finest account of one of our history's most important days.

  • Great Book

    This is a great book chronicling the background, battle, and aftermath of the decisive battle in the Europe during World War II. Ambrose writing style is a delight for any amateur historian of WWII. This book can be enjoyed by anyone wishing to learn more about D-Day. However, if you only want an brief introduction to the battle and its consequences, this may not be the book for you. For other great WWII books that offer a more concise history, you may want to check out: Citizen Soldier by Ambrose The Second World War by Keegan Empires on the Pacific by Thompson

  • D-Day June 6, 1944

    Yet another great book from author Stephen Ambrose. This book details the lives of just regular citizen soldiers fighting one of the biggest battles of all time, the invasion of Europe during WWII. If you liked the other books from this author, this book will not let you down. Not much more i can say about this book but to buy it and read it and find out truly what these men went through.

  • Freedom Reigns

    The book should be a textbooks for every High School in the nation. Bet tales of the greatness and Valor hotels who fought for freedoms of Europe against Hitler and his regime.
