Ten days to D-Day: countdown to the liberation of Europe

Ten days to D-Day: countdown to the liberation of Europe by STAFFORD David. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780316724777.

D-Day, 6th June 1944, was the climactic battle of World War II. Allied triumph was anything but inevitable - there was everything to play for and everything to lose. The story of the landings has been told and re-told many times, but no one has revealed the part that fate, human error, political infighting, deception and double agents played in the absolutely crucial ten days before the landings. David Staffords narrative, climaxing on the eve of D-Day, gives a day-by-day account of the untold human story behind this momentous event from both the Allied and Nazi perspectives.
