D-Day Landing Beaches: The Guide

I am going to Omaha beach next year. This book is so unique. It shows a lot of "Before and After" photos. Pictures also of what the house or bunker looked like back then and now. Really a great guide book.

I recently toured the Normandy area including the beaches and in land towns that were part of the the WWII June 6th battles. Needless to say there are many books on a variety of languages for sale all over the area and this one is the most comprehensive I found. It has breakdowns by each beach and airborne landing sight plus build up and break out details. It has been well researched and written with many excellent photographs and maps. A great working souvenir of the area, or for someone who just wants to know more about the subject.There are more expensive books, pariculalry if you buy them there, but this one gives you more bang for the buck than then others.

I suspect the content was translated from French and it is a very poor translation. Many sentences within the book that didn’t make sense, many misspelled words, missing words, wrong word choices within in a sentence. Really awful.

Extremely over priced. This 17 inch x 22 inch map should be priced around $3.99

Good book by explaining the tactics.

I visited these beaches in April, and I wanted more information about them. This book provided all the information I wanted to know.

Impressive!

very detailed

this is a great book to read before you visit Normandy

Good overview of the landings. Hobart's Funnies and beach obstacles.

Gives easy ideas of places to see and important aspects
