The subtitle of the book is an accurate depiction of what takes place. It is well written and researched. It covers the events from prior to D-Day to the successful charge of the La Fiere Bridge highlighting several different paratroopers and what happened to them. This is a must read for any fan of World War II and in particular the events of D-Day.

I received a free Kindle copy of this book courtesy of Net Galley and the publisher with the understanding that I would post a review on Net Galley, Goodreads, Amazon and my nonfiction book review blog.

This was an excellent book about a group of heroic men who everyone knew were there at DDay, but the attention is always on the guys on the beachhead. It took everyone's efforts to win the war.
