*Those who wish to study the Normandy Campaign in more detail will find a number of volumes in *'the U.S. Army in World War II** series, produced by the U.S. Army Center of Military History, particularly useful. **Gordon A. Harrison**, Cross-Channel-Attack (1951), remains a basic source, but a number of other studies bear heavily upon the operation. They include:   
# **Robert W. Coakley** and **Richard M. Leighton**, Global Logistics and Strategy (1968);   
# **Martin Blumenson**, Breakout and Pursuit (1961);   
# **Forrest C. Pogue**, The Supreme Command (1954);   
# **Roland G. Ruppenthal**, Logistical Support of the Armies (1953); and   
# **Graham A. Cosmas** and **Albert E. Cowdrey**, The Medical Department: Medical Service in the European Theater of Operations (1992).   

*The Historical Division of the War Department produced three volumes on the event. All have been reprinted by the Center of Military History. Classified as **the American Forces in Action** series, they are:   
# **OMAHA Beachhead** (6 June-13 June 1944) (1989);   
# **UTAH Beach to Cherbourg** (1990); and   
# **St. Lo** (7 July-19 July 1944) (1984).   

*A number of abbreviated summaries have been written. Among the most useful are:   
# **Charles MacDonald**, The Mighty Endeavor: American Armed Forces in the European Theater in World War II (1969); and   
# **Charles MacDonald** and **Martin Blumenson**, "Recovery of France," in **Vincent J. Esposito**, ed., A Concise History of World War II (1965).   

*Memoirs by Allied commanders contain considerable information. Among the best are:   
# **Omar N. Bradley**, A Soldier's Story (1951);   
# **Omar N. Bradley** and **Clay Blair**, A General's Life (1983);   
# **Dwight D. Eisenhower**, Crusade in Europe (1948);   
# **Sir Bernard Law Montgomery**, Normandy to the Baltic (1948); and   
# **Sir Frederick Edgeworth Morgan**, Overture to Overlord (1950).   

*Almost as useful are biographies of leading commanders. Among the most prominent are:   
# **Stephen E. Ambrose**, The Supreme Commander: The War Years of General Dwight D. Eisenhower (1970), and Eisenhower, Soldier, General of the Army, President-Elect, 1890-1952 (1983);  
# **Nigel Hamilton**, Master of the Battlefield: Monty's War Years, 1942-1944 (1983); and   
# **Richard Lamb**, Montgomery in Europe, 1943-1945: Success or Failure (1984).   

*A number of general histories also exist, many centering on the controversies that continue to surround the campaign and its commanders. See, in particular:   
# **John Colby**, War From the Ground Up: The 90th Division in World War II (1989);   
# **Carlo D'Este**, Decision in Normandy: The Unwritten Story of Montgomery and the Allied Campaign (1983);   
# **Max Hastings**, Overlord, D-Day, [[June 6]], [[1944]] (1984);
