Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the pivotal role of the American-built LSI in Royal Navy service during D-Day, the narrative highlights her transport of the 'Bedford Boys' to Omaha Beach's Dog Green sector. Philip Kay-Bujak draws on first-hand accounts to detail the ship's actions and the heavy losses among her landing craft. The book also explores her design, construction, and post-D-Day service, culminating in her sinking in December 1944. Supported by archival photos, it serves as a tribute to the often-overlooked contributions of ships like _Empire Javelin_ in Operation Overlord.
