June 6, 1944. D-Day. The day when, after years of preparation, Germany’s opponents in the west – the USA and England – began the second front, long demanded by Stalin to take pressure off the Red Army.
What really happened on that day? Why was the German command reluctant to believe in an invasion at this hour and on this coastal sector? Where was the German counterattack? Why were the panzer divisions, which were ready for action, not allowed to strike? What was going on with the Luftwaffe?
Carell answers these questions convincingly, factually and in his typically gripping style.
Furthermore, in this new revised and expanded edition he has taken into account the most recent results of historical research, especially the successful allied deception effort achieved by agents, phoney radio transmissions and sophisticated disinformation operations, details of which have only recently been revealed, and which led to fateful false estimations by Hitler and the German generals.[AuthorName]By Paul Carell[/AuthorName][AuthorBio]Paul Carell is also the author of the highly successful Foxes of the Desert; Hitler Moves East; Scorched Earth; Operation Barbarossa in Photographs; and Stalingrad: the Defeat of the German 6th Army.[/AuthorBio][NumIllustration]32 pages of photographs[/NumIllustration][CoAuthor][/CoAuthor][SubTitle]The German Account of the D-Day Landings and the 80 Days Battle for France[/SubTitle][ColorPattern]32 pages of photographs[/ColorPattern]
