Author and journalist Bruce Bliven was there that day, on the beaches of France, and he recounts it all, from the risky plans developed by the American and British military leaders through the daring landing itself. Most important, he shares stories of individual bravery shown by soldiers who waded or parachuted ashore in what became the turning point of the war.Bliven, Bruce, Jr. is the author of 'Invasion! The Story of D-day', published 2007 under ISBN 9781402745218 and ISBN 1402745214.
