When the Sea Came Alive: An Oral History of D-Day

內容簡介

內容簡介 重返二次大戰轉捩點 回顧D-day省思戰爭代價。一九四四年六月六日逾十五萬盟軍突襲登陸歐洲逆轉二戰形勢，導致軸心國走向失敗終局。暢銷歷史作家葛拉夫爬梳史料，蒐集七百名相關人士記憶。從盟國高層祕密擬定計畫、軍隊組織動員，到兵士邁出艙門為生命和自由世界未來奮戰的那一刻——葛氏探討此役影響，警醒世人戰爭代價，也向參戰軍士致敬。適逢諾曼第登陸(D日)八十周年，本書的出版別具意義。From the New York Times bestselling author of The Only Plane in the Sky and Pulitzer Prize finalist for Watergate comes the most up-to-date and complete account of D-Day—the largest seaborne invasion in history and the moment that secured the Allied victory in World War II.D-Day is one of history’s greatest and most unbelievable military and human triumphs. Though the full campaign lasted just over a month, the surprise landing of over 150,000 Allied troops on the morning of June 6, 1944, is understood to be the moment that turned the tide for the Allied forces and ultimately led to the defeat of the Axis powers in World War II. Now, a new book from bestselling author and historian Garrett M. Graff explores the full impact of this world-changing event—from the secret creation of landing plans by top government and military officials and organization of troops, to the moment the boat doors opened to reveal the beach where men fought for their lives and the future of the free world.Fascinating, action-packed, and filled with impressive detail, When the Sea Came Alive captures a human drama like no other, and offers a fitting tribute to the men and women of the Greatest Generation.
