To War Without Arms: The D-Day Diary of an Army Chaplain

Dr. Trew has done an excellent job of editing the diary and the book will be of interest to historians of the Normandy campaign and also of chaplaincy in WW2. I think the main contribution of the book to the vast literature on D-Day is that Reynolds' diary emphasises the human element of the operation, which is so often overshadowed by the technology and higher command issues.
