when the alliesarrive at 6 am , june 6, 1944 normandy is isolated. you can't get there from anywhere else in france. there have been 950 across roads and main bridges all over france so when hitler wants to get his reinforcements he can't. d-day wasn't a given. it wasnever obvious d-day was going to work . having time for the allies to get their critical supplies and for them to get their backup, get their supplies on theground . every moment, every hour changed the equation of that history. it took three weeks to reinforce the beaches. those were a critical three weeks and it all happened because the french resistance and it all happened because the allies armed the french resistance . the allies were able to arm the french resistance because women were kpart of that. you don't know about it because men writeworld history . until now. so with that in mind, this is a very fun book to write. because not only because it's a great meaty story, there's no one worse on earth than a nazi and no better story than heroism you don't know about. but it's fun i
