    General comments: I did not enjoy Stephen E. Ambrose, D-Day. By searching the net, you will find what actually happened on the landing craft from the only living survivor! He's angry, so am I wasting valuable time and money. In my opinion its poorly written, badly biased toward an American viewpoint and distorted history!

    I half expected Stephen E. Ambrose's version of the story of D-Day to be full of American jingoism. True, large sections are devoted to the USA build-up in the UK, and the Omaha and Utah landings. There are endless recollections from veterans who came "over here". I personally read with great affection and respect these accounts from USA service personnel. But Ambrose's chapters PAYBACK about the Canadian offensive, and FAIRLY STUFFED WITH GADGETS - AN UNFORGETTABLE SIGHT - MY GOD, WE'VE DON ...
