Christopher Lehmann-Haupt The New York Times Reading this history,
you can understand why for so many of its participants, despite all
the death surrounding them, life revealed itself in that moment at
that place.
John Lehman The Wall Street Journal Definitive...His evidence is
overwhelming.
Raleigh Trevelyan The New York Times Book Review D-Day is mostly
about people, but goes even further in evoking the horror, the
endurance, the daring and, indeed, the human failings at Omaha
Beach...Outstanding.
Thomas B. Buell Chicago Tribune Historians and public alike should
be profoundly grateful to Ambrose...for assembling this
comprehensive and permanent record that will be forever a resource
for remembering Normandy.
