Book excerpt: The D-Day invasion - the largest military operation of World War II and the beginning of the end - marked Dwight "Ike" Eisenhower as one of America's most powerful military leaders. This movie follows the 90 terrifying days leading up to the invasion as Eisenhower decides the fates of thousands of soldiers while managing complex strategic relationships with British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, American General George S. Patton, Britain's Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery and French President Charles de Gaulle. It was a time of no guarantees and certainly no second chances. In this climate, one man, Dwight Eisenhower, pulled the world's leaders together for one of history's most infamous battles.
