 Normandy - A Historic View Aug 27, 2000
I found this map to be a priceless aid in the study of the invasion when used in conjuction with books and outlines on the various battles. The stories of individual actions found in historic writings come alive when followed with this map. It clearly shows dates and locations of advances of the Allied Forces and shows Normany the way it was in 1944. We used this map to plan where we wanted to spend our time in Normandy and the sights we wanted to see. But do not use this map as a motor guide as roads and highways have changed. In short, a great tool.

 Great for a trip or just on your wall Jul 28, 2002
This is a great map of the Normandy area with locations, dates, routes, sectors, etc. of the invastion marked on it. It even has a short timeline. Some of the overprinting can be hard on the eyes and the amount of detail can be overwhelming but it is still very well done. Very useful if you are visitng the area or just want to hang it on your wall for show or for use as a reference while you read.

Normandy Map 102 Aug 04, 2005
By Robert C. Holmes
Excellent. I consider myself a World War II in Europe "fan", try to read all the books I can. This has certainly made many of them more meaningful since I can now pinpoint locations in them. Read about this map when Time published their 60 yr anniversary of D-day issue. Tom Hanks mentioned it, but I hadn't been able to find it. Googled, and there it was. Amazon came through again.

Review of Michelin Battle Map of Normandy Oct 25, 2005
By Paul W. Schmidt
This map is a valuable companion to any book on Operation Overlord and the follow on operations in Normandy. It allows the reader to maintain geographical awareness when reading of the military operations taking place in various locations.

Perfect for visiting Normandy May 14, 2008
By Pat Galant
I purchased Michelin Battle of Normandy Map No.102 to help us guide ourselves around Normandy this spring while looking for war ruins such as bunkers, and memorials and cemetaries. The map is very detailed and was excellent for planning the trip before arriving in France. However, after driving in Normandy, I was startled that I could actually depend on this map for navigation! Even though it is a map from the 40's, many things have not changed in Normandy! While some cemetaries that were identified on the maps are no longer US cemetaries (for example, we exhumed our dead from a current German cemetary and reburied them in the US cemetary near Omaha beach), practically every other feature identified on the map is accurate. These include the memorial markers, gun batteries, parachute drop zones and even the towns which had a lot of battle damage. The road numbers are the mostly the same so it's easy to get around by using this map. If you're touring Normandy you will be very happy you brought this map with you and used it. It's also readily available in many museums in the area.
