In this epoch-defining conflict lies another definitive moment: the invasion of a 50-mile stretch of coast in Normandy, France, on June 6, 1944. This battle, also known as D-Day, was the pivot point of the war in Europe. Its success led to a nearly yearlong, bloody campaign that saw the liberation of France, Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands, followed by the final defeat of Hitler's Third Reich. In the six lectures of D-Day Revisited: The Invasion of Normandy, Professor John C. McManus will take you back to this transformative moment in modern history and reveal how it succeeded. Along the way, you will better understand why it was a truly world-changing military operationone that could easily have gone a different way.
