They expected to drive the Axis forces north and be in Rome by Christmas. And although Italy surrendered, the German forces resisted fiercely and the swift hoped-for victory descended into one of the most brutal battles of the war.Even though shipping and materiel were already being safeguarded for the D-Day landings, there were still huge expectations on the progress of the invading armies, but those shortages were to slow the advance with tragic consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNormandy ‘44 D-Day and the Battle for France:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this reexamined history, James Holland presents a broader overview, one that challenges much of what we think we know about D-Day and the Normandy campaign. The sheer size and scale of the Allies' war machine ultimately dominates the strategic, operational and tactical limitations of the German forces.Drawing on unseen archives and testimonies from around the world and introducing a cast of eye-witnesses including foot soldiers, tank men, fighter pilots and more, James Holland's epic telling profoundly recalibrates our understanding of its true place in the tide of human history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"James Holland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57245118693758,"sku":"PLD16909","price":33.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0642\/4549\/8093\/files\/71fgztRSsPL._SL1000.jpg?v=1776152291","url":"https:\/\/www.letsbuybooks.com\/products\/james-holland-collection-2-books-set-normandy-44-d-day-and-the-battle-for-france-the-savage-storm-hb","provider":"Lets Buy Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
