Gordon & David Ramsay\nPrometheus Books\, May 2023 \nOn June 6\, 2024\, our own member and treasurer Ed Gordon took the podium to talk about his new book. \nDivided on D-Day: How Leadership Failures Threatened the Normandy Invasion presents a cogent analysis of the myriad obstacles the Allied leaders faced in the planning and execution of the Normandy campaign. \nEd discussed the conflicting egos\, personal and national rivalries\, and professional abilities of the major Allied commanders\, and contends that their lack of cooperation and bad decisions lengthened the war\, increased casualties\, and allowed the later Soviet domination of Eastern Europe. \nEdward E Gordon is an internationally recognized historian\, speaker\, researcher\, and author.  For 20 years Dr. Gordon taught at DePaul\, Loyola\, and Northwestern Universities in Chicago. He has made presentations over the last 30 years at museums\, colleges\, universities\, conferences\, and to professional associations and community organizations.  Over his career as an historian\, Edward E. Gordon’s goal has been to delve into the lessons of history for diverse audiences from many types of organizations \nDivided on D-Day’s coauthor is the late David Ramsay\, the son of Admiral Sir Bertram Ramsay who was the naval-commander-in-chief for the Normandy Invasion and who earlier directed the Dunkirk evacuation. \n
