Oxfam books & music durham what happened to the allied armies in normandy in the months after d-day, ? why, after the initial success of the landings, did their advance stall a few miles inland from the beaches? why did the british take so long to capture caen? why did the us infantry struggle so much in the bocage south of omaha beach? who was right about the conduct of the land campaign - eisenhower or montgomery? how did the germans, deprived of air support, manage to hold off such a massive allied force for more than two months? and if enigma was allowing the allies to read german battleplans, why did things go wrong as often as they did?the battle of normandy re-examines the demands and difficulties of the campaign and sheds new light on both with the aid of accounts from veterans on both sides) it also analyses in detail the plans and performance of the commanders involved: eisenhower, bradley, patton, montgomery, crerar and, of course, rommelcontroversial and at times catastrophic, the battle of normandy was the last great set-piece battle in history and is long overdue for reassessmentsee oxfam website for delivery information read more(oral history forms a large part of the book
