Publisher Description

A detailed, step-by-step account of one of the greatest war-time raids that helped to ensure the Allied success on D-Day.



The night before D-Day, light infantry and a detachment of Royal Engineers landed by gliders at Pegasus Bridge, which spanned the Caen Canal. Quickly overwhelming the guards, they managed to hold the bridge and help prevent German reinforcements from reaching the British landing beaches.



Will Fowler provides a thorough account of this classic wartime raid.
