The Normandy battlefields : D-Day and the Bridgehead
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

"The Normandy Battlefields details what can be seen on the ground today using a mixture of media to provide a complete overview of the campaign. Maps old and new highlight what has survived and what hasn't; then-and-now photography allows fascinating comparisons with the images taken at the time--particularly the aerial views--and computer artwork provides graphic details of things that can't be seen today. The book describes the area from Cherbourg to Le Havre by way of the key D-Day locations, providing a handbook for the visitor and an overview for the armchair traveler. It covers, wherever possible, the forces from both sides and the memorials to those young men who fought so many years ago."--www.Amazon.com.
