"We are stronger together" — a quote that 'Allies' beautifully illustrates. A novel of the D-Day invasion, 'Allies' weaves together several characters' lives on that epic day, showing how several people — soldier, paratrooper, medic, and French resistance worker — all played a part to make this allied invasion possible. 'Allies' also gives readers a realistic look at the dilemmas the troops faced in the-not-planned events of D-Day. Due be aware that frequent inappropriate language occurs in the book; this was a great disappointment to me and tears down the plot quite a bit. Overall though, 'Allies' is an accurate, broad, and action-packed portrayal of the day that saved the world from Nazi tyranny.
