The D-Day invasion and the subsequent Battle for Normandy is undoubtedly one of the most iconic and most written about episodes of military history. It would therefore be reasonable to assume that after eight decades had passed, that generations of historians would have reached a consensus of the definition of the roles of the main protagonists in leading the way for the Western Allies most famous victory during the Second World War.

It is indeed astonishing to consider that many of the most commonly held perceptions of what exactly happened in 1944 are nothing but deeply ingrained myths, repeated so often that they now go unchallenged.

In Command and Valour, the author addresses these myths head on, readdresses the truth of the battle reaching conclusions which may surprise many of those who thought they already knew all there was to know on such an iconic subject. Alongside this story, the author recounts, for the very first time in a single volume, the instances of incredible valour which led to the 21 Victoria Crosses and Medals of Honor to be awarded during the Normandy Campaign.
