N1  - "A novel of D-Day and the battle of Normandy" -- Cover
N2  - D-Day. June 6th, 1944. The trajectory of the Second World War -- and with it the course of modern history -- is changed for ever. For three young former schoolmates from South Wales, their war is only just beginning. James was the school cricket captain. Now, a few short years later, he is in charge of a troop of Sherman tanks. Mark, just nineteen, must lead a platoon of infantrymen into battle. And Bill, always something of a loner, sees the heart of the fighting as a private soldier. These young men, and thousands of others, will soon be a part of one of the bloodiest and most brutal parts of the Normandy campaign: the battle for Hill 112. The horror, the fear, the filth; the savage fighting; the sheer exhilaration and moments of farce and laughter. Those who come through the carnage will never be the same again
