Cornelius Ryan

The book is about D-Day, the first day of the invasion of Normandy in World War II. It describes in detail the main operation of the sailing force, which captured the Caen Canal and the bridges on the River Orne before the main attack on the Normandy coas

An unrivaled historical classic that re-creates the battle that changed World War II - the Allied invasion of Normandy. The Longest Day is Cornelius Ryan's unsurpassed account of D-Day, a book that remains a masterpiece of military history. In this compelling story of courage and heroism, glory and tragedy, Ryan painstakingly reconstructs the fateful hours leading up to and following the massive invasion of Normandy to tell the story of the epic battle that would turn the tide against world fascism and free Europe from the grip of Nazi Germany. This book, first published in 1959, is a must for anyone who loves history, as well as anyone who wants to better understand how free nations prevailed during a time when darkness enveloped the Earth.
