Event Details

James Holland looks at the dramatic events of D-Day, 6 June 1944, and how the Western Allies were able to achieve this extraordinary operation just four years after the strategic catastrophe of France’s defeat.  Offering a sweep through the War in the West, Holland will discuss how both Britain and the United States had to rapidly rearm, rethink and redraw earlier plans and come together to form the most successful military coalition the world has ever known.  As Europe and the West face uncertainty and turbulence today, Holland will look at what lessons can be learned from the experience of the Second World War.
