This title describes the D-Day landings in World War II in a dramatic, moment-by-moment account. It also looks at the build up to D-Day within the context of World War II - showing why it happened when it did - and looks at its consequences in the wider context of 20th Century history. Moment-in-time boxes draw out first hand accounts of the day, giving the reader an insight into how people involved thought and felt at the time.
