THE INVASION BEFORE NORMANDY: The secret battle of Slapton Sands

Written by Edwin P. Hoyt, This book was very interesting. I did not know anything about pre- ivasion plans in the south of England. The book kept my attention and spueerd me on to read UTAH BEACH: The amphibious and airborne landings operations on D-Day by Joseph Balkoski- so yes , I give this book a good review and would reccomend it. Thanks to Patricia Horton whom I ordered this book from. wellyn sellers
