To create it, Mark Bando , an American historian of the 101st Airborne, along with Emmanuel Allain and Michel De Trez , founders of the D-Day Experience Museum, pooled their knowledge and collections. Mark Bando began collecting testimonies when most of us were not even born. 235 x 295 mm, over 400 illustrations, 296 pages. Bilingual edition: English-French.
