A stirring, and at times disturbing, account of actions of the American 29th and British 3rd Infantry Divisions in the first few weeks of the Normandy campaign. From the D-Day landings on Omaha and Sword beaches to the eventual liberation of St Lo and Caen, the author compares and contrasts the actions of these fine fighting men and describes in detail how they suffered a staggering 10,000 casualties in the completion of their similar missions.
