Editorial Reviews
From Amazon.com
This three-part documentary from the History Channel recounts the invasion of Normandy by blending combat footage, interviews with the soldiers who fought the battle, and commentary from historians. The series covers the strategy, planning, and buildup, the Battle of D-Day, and the weeks of fighting after the landing that led to the Allied breakout and the liberation of France. While the documentary includes extensive combat footage, it's the interviews with both Allied and Axis soldiers that bring the battle to life for viewers. These accounts range from the experiences of an RAF nurse to stories of the American Rangers who discovered and disabled German artillery at Point du Hoc. Noted author Steven Ambrose provides provocative insight into America's success and Germany's failures through his analysis of the armies different command and control styles. D-Day: The Total Story is engaging, well paced, and lively throughout. --William Carr
