A detailed Summary of America at D-Day A Day of Rememberance


AMERICA AT D-DAY: A DAY OF REMEMBRANCE

I am very interested in World War II. So I choose a book that was

written about the Normandy Invasion. More commonly know as D-Day or

Deliverance day. The title of the book is America at D-Day. It was written

by Richard Goldstein. The book has 287 pages and also has 90 different

pictures from the invasion of Normandy. The reason the author wrote this

book was to show exactly what happened at D-Day.

The author starts off by describing the preparation for D-Day in great

detail. The code name given to the Normandy Invasion was Operation

Overlord. It was planned mainly by General Dwight David Eisenhower.

Prior to World War II Eisenhower never had any actual combat experience.

Eisenhower was a training officer during World War I. Then in 1942

Eisenhower was given command of the Allied invasion of North Africa.

Eisenhower is not the type of man who has a huge ego and he does not give

blood-and-guts speeches, but he does know how to manager people who have

super egos. General Eisenhower "had the ability to work generals--along

with airmen, Navy men, and lesser soldiers by the millions--in effective

harmony in carrying out large-scale operations" (Go



Brigadier General Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. and Brigadier General Norman

Operation Overlord was a well kept secret. The Allies went through a

lot to make sure that the Germans only heard what the Allies wanted him to

and his leaders were falling for the plan. The Germans built up there troops
