A German perspective of D-Day, written by an Army Corps intelligence officer in Normandy when the Allies invaded, published in English for the first time.
A unique perspective on the decisive early weeks of the invasion in 1944, written by a German Army Corps Intelligence officer stationed in Normandy at the time of the Allied invasion, who during the invasion was the department head for enemy messages processing (Ic) in the staff of the LXXXIV AK. It discusses in detail the events leading up to the creation of Falaise Pocket, described by the author as a "tragic turning point of an entire front." It discusses in detail the conditions in the American landing section and explains how the German troops based there came to be defeated. Praise for Normandy
"Should be read by scholars working on the fighting between the Americans and Germans on the western side of the Normandy front." —Journal of Military History
"The interaction among German command is interesting as it scrambles to patch lines. The book covers battles over D-Day beaches, U.S. paratrooper drops, Cherbourg, hedgerows, Operations Cobra and Luttich, and Falaise Pocket formation and collapse." —Historical Miniatures Gaming Society
"[A] unique, informative, and inherently fascinating study . . . absolutely essential and core addition to personal, professional, community, college, and university library World War II history collections." —Midwest Book Review
