520 _aEs una biografía del Ejército de los EE. UU. en el teatro de operaciones europeo, y Ambrose nuevamente sigue a los personajes individuales de esta guerra noble, brutal y trágica. Desde el alto mando hasta el soldado ordinario, Ambrose se basa en cientos de entrevistas para recrear la experiencia de la guerra con una claridad e inmediatez sorprendentes. Desde los setos de Normandía hasta la invasión de Alemania, Ambrose cuenta la historia real de la Segunda Guerra Mundial desde la perspectiva de los hombres y mujeres que lucharon en ella.
