While interesting to me, I think you have to be a serious student of World War II to appreciate this book. It was interesting to read the sometimes conflicting accounts of German commanders as to how they prepared and reacted to the D-Day invasion. These accounts were written after the war when the writers were Allied POWs in response to Allied interest in the German response to the invasion.

Allied intelligence questioned many of the surviving German commanders after the war on many areas of interests, not just D-Day. However, the editor limited his coverage to just the D-Day preparations and response.
