About
One of history’s greatest tank regiments, the Sherwood Rangers had learned their trade the hard way, under the burning sun of North Africa. By the time they landed on Gold Beach on D-Day, they were toughened by experience and ready for combat. From that moment on, the regiment was in the thick of the action until the war's end. Through compelling eyewitness testimony and expert analysis, James Holland brings their story, and that of the final bloody scramble across Europe, vividly to life.

As always, you will be able to submit your questions for James Holland throughout the presentation, to be answered in the live Q&A at the end of the talk.
