I've always liked Keegan's analysis
</blockquote><em class='bbc'>Face of Battle</em> is very good. Have you read <em class='bbc'>Six Armies at Normandy</em>?
</blockquote>On the bookshelf but only used for reference so far. Among the many books on my reading list.
</blockquote>It's well done. I've read a good deal about the American landings, the British landings, and the Canadian landings, but it was something to read about the Polish and German experiences.
I have just started David Hackett Fischer's <em class='bbc'>Albion's Seed</em>, about the English settlement fo North America. I've read a few books by Fischer and enjoy his style. I'll let you know how it goes.
