An alternative history of the D-Day Campaign A shocking and gripping narrative describing what might have been Complete with maps and authentic illustrations
It is June 1944. The Allied armies are poised for the full-scale invasion of Fortress Europe. Across the Channel, the vaunted Wehrmacht lies waiting for the signs of invasion, ready for the final battle. What happens next is well-known to any student of modern history. The outcome could easily have been very different, as Peter Tsouras shows in this masterful and devastating account in which plans, missions and landings go horribly wrong. Tsouras firmly bases his narrative on facts but introduces minor adjustments at the opening of the campaign-the repositioning of a unit, bad weather and misjudged orders-and examines their effect as they gather momentum and impact on all subsequent events. Without deviating from the genuine possibilities of the situation, he presents a scenario that keeps the reader guessing and changes the course of history.

PETER TSOURAS is a respected military historian and the author of Hitler Victorious, Gettysburg: An Alternate History, Third Reich Victorious, Cold War Hot and Disaster at Stalingrad.
