Michelin Battle of Normandy Map No.102

Summary: Normandy - A Historic View
Review: I found this map to be a priceless aid in the study of the invasion when used in conjuction with books and outlines on the various battles. The stories of individual actions found in historic writings come alive when followed with this map. It clearly shows dates and locations of advances of the Allied Forces and shows Normany the way it was in 1944. We used this map to plan where we wanted to spend our time in Normandy and the sights we wanted to see. But do not use this map as a motor guide as roads and highways have changed. In short, a great tool.

Summary: Great for a trip or just on your wall
Review: This is a great map of the Normandy area with locations, dates, routes, sectors, etc. of the invastion marked on it. It even has a short timeline. Some of the overprinting can be hard on the eyes and the amount of detail can be overwhelming but it is still very well done. Very useful if you are visitng the area or just want to hang it on your wall for show or for use as a reference while you read.
