Seller's Description:
World War II-General An author's research copy, some lines in margins. some darkening of page edges. Good. The Allied victory at Omaha Beach was a costly one. A direct infantry assault against a defence that was years in the making, undertaken in daylight following a mere 30 minute bombardment, the attack had neither the advantage of tactical surprise nor that of overwhelming firepower. American forces were forced to improvise under enemy fire, and although they were ultimately victorious, they suffered devastating casualties. Why did the Allies embark on an attack with so many disadvantages? Making extensive use of primary sources, Adrian Lewis traces the development of the doctrine behind the plan for the invasion of Normandy. UL-XXXXXX. 448pp. maps.
