Their advance was slowed following the failure of the 90th Infantry Division, but they were able to take Pont-l'Abbe on 12 June and Saint-Sauveur-le-Vicomte 16 June. Two days later they cut the Cotentin peninsula at Barneville, before heading north towards Cherbourg.  As well as authentic eyewitness testimony, the book also acts as a field guide, including maps and both comtemporary and modern photographs.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56301012484469,"sku":"9781473857636","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781473857636.jpg?v=1762789912","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781473857636","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
