Title: Not what I expected, mostly British items
Product review: There are lots of footnotes, quotes, references. He can back up what he says.However, this book is NOT a combat chronicle. Is is mostly about the politics, planning, back-biting, second-guessing that went on at the command level. It is also mostly about the British troops, and about Montgomery. The American forces in Normandy are mentioned here & there in passing.Compared to the Stephen Ambrose style, I found this tome too focused on command, the British, and kinda boring.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
