Stephen E. Ambrose's D-Day is the definitive history of World War II's most pivotal battle, a day that changed the course of history.

D-Day is the epic story of men at the most demanding moment of their lives, when the horrors, complexities, and triumphs of life are laid bare. Distinguished historian Stephen E. Ambrose portrays the faces of courage and heroism, fear and determination--what Eisenhower called "the fury of an aroused democracy"--that shaped the victory of the citizen soldiers whom Hitler had disparaged.Drawing on more than 1,400 interviews with American, British, Canadian, French, and German veterans, Ambrose reveals how the original plans for the invasion had to be abandoned, and how enlisted men and junior officers acted on their own initiative when they realized that nothing was as they were told it would be.

The action begins at midnight, June 5/6, when the first British and American airborne troops jumped into France. It ends at midnight June 6/7. Focusing on those pivotal twenty-four hours, it moves from the level of Supreme Commander to that of a French child, from General Omar Bradley to an American paratrooper, from Field Marshal Montgomery to a German sergeant.

Ambrose's D-Day is the finest account of one of our history's most important days.

Best face sun protection
My Neutrogena one stung my eyes and made me constantly tear and this is soooo much better. It feels light and dries down well without feeling greasy. Also it didn't make my skin react. A++

Greasy but light
It's very lightweight and is definitely hydrating it's lightly greasy after its dry and it is not matte but has a dewy shine to it , I have tried many sunscreens and settled on this one as it just has a nicer feel to it and is easier to apply everyday, it goes on quickly and leaves no white streaks at all Its more watery than thick And does NOT peel whatsoever I Would definitely recommend this as a daily Face sunscreen if you not mind the shine it has to it. Its convenient Yet the bottle is small and last only about a 1 to 3 weeks depending how many times you use it To bad They DO NOT MAKE A BIGGER SIZE

Hydrating sunscreen
This is a great sunscreen for dry sensitive skin, even combination skin specifically if you’re using acne products that can dry out your skin. My dermatologist recommended this to me due to my rosacea and dry flaky skin. It helped me maintain my skin moisturize during the day, also adds a healthy glow to the skin. It has a liquid consistency which I love cause it makes it so much easier to blend and absorbs faster into the skin. I wouldn’t recommend so much for oily skin though, it can make you look greasy really quick!!
