A Guide to the Beaches and Battlefields of Normandy provides both an
accessible background to the momentous events of 6th June 1944 as well as a
complete guide to each and every town, village, beach, battery and cemetery that
figured in the battle.
This comprehensive book contains a wealth of detail that charts the
heroism, poignancy and tragedy of events that were to alter the course of
history. With stories, poems and illustrations, David Evans pays a fitting
tribute to those who gave their lives as the price of victory.
Accompanied by photographs, maps and drawings, this guide is aimed
primarily at the thousands of veterans, relatives and tourists who visit
Normandy
each year, but it will also be an endless source of enjoyment to those who wish
to recall the details and monuments of the battle in the comfort of their own
homes.
