About this Product

On D-Day, 6 June, 1944, an Allied force led by General Dwight D Eisenhower launched the greatest seaborne military invasion in history. Over 150,000 Allied soldiers landed on the beaches of Normandy, France, in an operation that paved the way for the freedom of Nazi-occupied Europe and the end of Hitler's terrifying regime. Through this exciting comic strip narrative, Doug Murray dramatically brings to life the events of the momentous D-Day landings; a single day which forever altered the course of World War II.
