Omaha Beach Normandy 1944

This is one of the first titles in a new series published by Casemate, known as ‘Past & Present’.

The subject may be familiar to many readers and historians alike, but this new series is something completely different. The format of using original wartime photographs alongside modern images is nothing new, but the style and presentation with this series certainly is and it is most refreshing. Some of the older images will be familiar but the authors have added new information and when combined with modern photographs the effect is a transformation. All the exit routes off Omaha are included and many of the less visited sites are given a new importance. If you think you know Omaha Beach, this work will add more to your understanding. If you have never been to the location, use this book to guide you around the area, you will not be disappointed.
