This is not a sales plug. I make no money from this.

Some of you remember me from back in the day here. So I figured I would tip you off to the fact that after 27 years my highly respected book "Spearheading D-day" is now out of print in English. It will, however, stay in print in French, as the French seem to respect history more and some even read).

The book was named as one of the top 10 books on D-day by the Wall Street Journal. And of course in the various military hobbies it sold so well that they never really felt a need to advertise.

So I bring this to your attention as I have been advised by some book people they expect used copies to now skyrocket in price. They estimate $125 USD-150.

If you are interested in D-Day, I advise you to go find a copy and just look at it. Once the charts and photos draw you in, if you actually read the text you may find that parts of it are pretty good at obscure stuff no one knew 30 years ago.

It's hard to find in libraries as it alw3ays get stolen (seriously). But if you have a copy, hold on to it for a while, and if you have been thinking of getting one, do it now and save money. And thank you to everyone who has said nice things about it over the years.
