This book examines the experience of two British infantry divisions, the 43rd (Wessex)
and 53rd (Welsh), during the Overlord campaign in Northwest Europe. To understand
the way the British fought during Operation Overlord, the book considers the political
and military factors between 1918 and 1943 before addressing the major battles and
many of the minor engagements and day-to-day experiences of the campaign
