D-Day: June 6, 1944 : The Climactic Battle of WWII Free Audiobook Download by Stephen E. Ambrose

On June 6, 1944, Allied forces stormed the beaches of Normandy, France. The Allies goal was to liberate Western Europe and end World War II. After six months of planning, the invasion began with a bombing campaign. This soundless narration depicts the invasion itself in a very detailed way.

The D-Day invasion of Normandy was the most critical point in World War II. It was a long, hard fought campaign and it started with the Allies' amphibious landings on June 6, 1944. The events that happened during this time have been told countless times by historians such as Stephen Ambrose, but never so movingly as in this audiobook narrated by Jesse Boggs.

D-Day: June 6, 1944 is a pivotal day in history. On this date, codenamed Operation Overlord, an invasion of German-occupied France was scheduled for the western Allied forces. It's called D-Day because the first letters of the name "D-Day" were the four words used to designate the operation. The Allies had planned for months for this crucial event. D-Day wasn't about armies but about landing craft -- more than 10,000 boats and ships carrying soldiers and supplies on a long journey that begins in England.

D-Day was an audacious military strategy devised by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and American President Franklin Roosevelt to invade German-occupied France. This completely secret operation would be the largest amphibious military assault ever attempted.

D-Day, which was originally called Operation Overlord, was the invasion on the coast of Normandy in Northern France during World War II. The operation began on 6 June 1944 and ended on 22 June 1944 with the liberation of Western Europe from Nazi Germany. The battle's outcome crucially depended on Hitler's decision to either reinforce his Atlantic Wall defenses along the Normandy coast or move his armies out of France altogether.
