The D-Day Kit-Bag: The Ultimate Guide to the Allied Assault on Europe
 To honor the 70th anniversary of D-Day, this superlatively photographed book tells the story of the landings through more than 200 key objects carried by the men who launched the campaign. Selected for their importance to the outcome, and often arranged exactly as the participants' kits were, the artifacts include uniforms and personal mementos of such Generals as Eisenhower and Patton; blueprints of the Mulberry harbors; personal mementos of the US Rangers on Omaha Beach and British Airborne troops at Pegasus Bridge; K-rations and cigarettes, and even rare German Army and Waffen SS material collected from the Normandy battlefields. International in scope, the book covers the US, UK, Canadian, Polish, Free French, and French Resistance, along with Axis soldiers.
