As June 6, 1944 passed into history, the Allied battle to hold onto the French soil won on D-Day began. Six miles inland from Juno Beach, 3rd Canadian Infantry Division had advanced, at great cost in lives, farther than any other Allied division. But for all the horror endured on June 6, every soldier digging in on this front line knew worse was yet to come, for the Allied toehold on the Normandy coast was extremely tenuous, and out in the darkness beyond no man's land the fury of the 12th SS (Hitlerjugend) Panzer Division was massing, intent on throwing the invaders back into the sea. For six days, the outcome hung in the balance as the Canadians and fanatical Hitler Youth engaged in a close-quarters battle neither side could afford to lose. Renowned military historian Mark Zuehlke follows up his best-selling Juno Beach with a dramatic retelling of this all-or-nothing battle that decided the fate of the Normandy invasion.
