Invasion Journal is veteran war correspondent Richard Tobin's account of his time in England, aboard several Royal Navy fighting ships, and in France with American G.I.s shortly after the D-Day invasion. Offering interesting insights into English life – the food, morale of the civilians, V-1 bombings – as well as a look at Allied soldiers from its leaders to its soldiers and sailors, Invasion Journal portrays war-time life as it was for millions of people during the heady year of 1944. Of note is his coverage of the broadcasts by the Nazis of the unsuccessful attempt on Hitler's life on July 20, 1944. Tobin (1910-1995) was a reporter, editor, and war correspondent for The New York Herald Tribune from 1932-1956. From 1960-1976 he worked at The Saturday Review as a senior editor and executive.
