The Story of D-Day: June 6, 1944 (Landmark Books)

Summary: My favorite book
Review: One of the best book I have ever read in the past year has to be the Story of D-Day June 6,1944 by Bliven. It is a marvelous book about the invasion of Normandy. One of the major reasons I enjoy this book is how they planned, and how they trained and how they put it to good use. At night and in the morning of D-Day the paratroopers jumped by the thousands and their supplies were lost. Their supplies were in the hands of the enemy. Another reason I found the book to be so wonderful is the landing at Pointe de Hoc. The allied troops had to carry the rocket launchers up the cliffs even as the enemy cut their ropes , but they made it . Of course my favorite reason for loving this book is the vehicle called Ducks. This vehicle could move like a boat on water and drive like a vehicle called Ducks. This vehicle could move like a boat on water and drive like a vehicle on land . Most of the Ducks sank except for one and it was trying to stay afloat and a small ship came to the rescue and saved the crew of the Duck . To conclude ,the story of D-Day by Bliven was truly my favorite book.
