What was it like to parachute by night into Normandy, to defend the beaches from within the German bunker, to splash fearfully ashore under machine-gun and artillery fire, to be a victim of the relentless Allied air attacks or to struggle from a burning tank brewed-up by deadly 88s? Many books have been written about the Normandy landings but this brings a new perspective, drawing on German and Allied eye-witness accounts and other sources little used in the standard accounts.
