This book deals with the planning and the difficulties encountered incident to the mounting of the largest amphibious assault ever undertaken in military history. Much of the information it contains has not heretofore been a matter of public knowledge. For example, light is for the first time thrown upon the enemy's conflicting theories of defense against Allied air superiority and upon his paucity of first-class troops. This information is derived from the official records of the Wehrmacht and from signed statements of German participants. Many of the difficulties encountered in the planning, as well as in the execution stage of the operation, are here described to the public for the first time.

This volume in the U.S. Army' Center of Military History series, U.S. Army in World War II, is introductory to a series on the European Theater of Operations. The book deals with the development of strategy and planning for the attack on northwest Europe in 1944 and with the first month of operations establishing Allied armies in France. The first 7 chapters (c. 2/3) of the book are concerned with the prelude to the 6 June assault: the preparations and discussions of strategy on both the Allied and German sides from 1941 to 1944. The remaining 3 chapters describe the combat operations of the First U.S. Army in Normandy from 6 June to 1 July 1944. Includes black and white photos and a portfolio of maps.

On 6th June 1944 Operation Overlord was launched. On the first day 1,200 planes provided an airborne assault, 5,000 ships battered the coastline with their shells and 160,000 men crossed the English Channel to land on the beaches of Normandy. This was the beginning of the successful invasion of German-occupied Western Europe; this was D-Day. No longer would the Axis forces have a stranglehold on Europe as the Allied forces created a much-need foothold on the shore of northern France after one of the most ambitious amphibious assaults in history. Gordon A. Harrison's brilliant account of this operation uncovers how the Allied commanders prepared for the assault from as early as 1941, and how German forces attempted to build their defenses in the expectation of the eventual attack. He then explores the details of combat operations of the Allied forces from 6th June to 1st July 1944. To do this he uses a wide-range of material including thousands of cables, memoranda, plans, journal entries and records from both the Allied and Axis forces. Cross-Channel Attack is the U.S. Army's official history of the D-Day invasion and should be essential reading for anyone interested in how this remarkable assault was planned and executed. "well arranged" Alfred Vagts, The American Historical Review Gordon A. Harrison was a former newspaper reporter and instructor at Harvard University, who holds the Doctor of Philosophy degree from that institution. During the war he served as a historical officer with the Third Army, taking part in five campaigns. His book Cross-Channel Attack was first published in 1951.
