The World War II History Book Discussion Group will discuss Overlord: D-Day and the Battle for Normandy by Max Hastings (Vintage, $16.95). On June 6, 1944, American and British troops staged the greatest amphibious landing in history to begin Operation Overlord, the battle to liberate Europe from the scourge of the Third Reich. Moving beyond just the storming of Omaha beach and D-Day, he explores the Allies' push inward. Far from a gauzy romanticized remembrance, Hastings details a grueling ten week battle to overpower the superbly trained, geographically entrenched German Wehrmacht.
