This book presents unique photographic documents and maps of the Allied invasion of Normandy in 1944, some of which have never been seen before and were largely unknown on the German book market. This documentation features numerous unpublished photographs from American archives that reveal the technology, the drama of the landing and the German defensive measures. Approximately 300 images, maps and drawings also show the human aspect of a battle that became a decisive moment in history. Walter Waiss, an expert on historical publications about the Second World War, offers D-Day as a comprehensive collection of pictorial documents that are not only historically accurate but also captivatingly presented. The previously forgotten photographs from American archives are not only a treasure trove for history buffs, but also a visual journey into the past that combines technological history and human destinies.
