D-Day ended with the Canadians six miles inland -- the deepest penetration achieved by Allied forces during this longest day in history. But for all the horror endured on June 6 every soldier knew the worst was yet to come. The Germans began probing the Canadian lines early in the morning of June 7 and shortly after dawn counter attacked in force. The ensuing six days of battle was to prove bloodier than D-Day itself. Although battered and bloody, the Canadians had held their ground and made it possible for the slow advance toward Germany and eventual Allied victory to begin. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eHolding Juno\u003c\/i\u003e recreates this pivotal battle through the eyes of the soldiers who fought it, with the same dramatic intensity and factual detail that made \u003ci\u003eJuno Beach\u003c\/i\u003e, in the words of \u003ci\u003eQuill \u0026amp; Quire\u003c\/i\u003e reviewer Michael Clark, \"the defining popular history of Canada's D-Day battle.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Zuehlke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1553651944\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781553651949\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Douglas \u0026amp; McIntyre\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.10w x 1.30d","brand":"Mark Zuehlke","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939584966911,"sku":"9781553651949","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_681a002c-dc09-4ccf-96d0-394cefb0b553.jpg?v=1681442355","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/holding-juno-mark-zuehlke-9781553651949","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
