More about the book
On 6 June 1944, thousands of British soldiers – many untested, some scarcely trained for what awaited them - stormed the beaches of Normandy and met war in its most brutal form. In Sword, Max Hastings brings extraordinary immediacy to the British experience of D-Day by focusing on a single beach and tracing the actions of the Commando brigade and Montgomery's 3rd Infantry and 6th Airborne divisions. With his bestselling blend of vivid narrative, forensic analysis and unforgettable human portraits, Hastings takes us into the heart of the action; this is the story of D-Day as you have never read it before.
