The Longest Day: D-day 1944 (revised Collector's Edition)
About This Novel
The Longest Day is "an unsurpassed epic about the D-Day invasion." The author Cornelius Ryan spent more than ten years searching for D-Day survivors. After interviewing almost all survivors and witnesses of the Normandy landing, he completed this epoch-making masterpiece of 200,000 words, "not a single word has a source." He magnified the nameless individuals on the battlefield to a sufficiently clear magnification and followed their line of sight to see the scene of the landing operation. This way of magnifying details to infinity and making history real enough makes everyone who reads this book immersed in it. This is a war epic about destiny and courage to change destiny. Here, you can see the fear and confusion of weak individuals when facing the dark unknown, and experience the cruelty and despair when they are in a desperate situation; and how people in this situation muster up the courage to persevere, fight, and finally usher in their own victory and glory. It deeply embeds war into everyone's life experience and accompanies us to find hope in the dark and gloomy times.
