The Normandy landings of 6 June 1944, across five sectors of the French coast - Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword - constituted the largest amphibious invasion in history. This study analyses in depth the preparations and implementation of the D-Day landing on Gold Beach by XXX Corps. Historians have tended to dismiss the landing on Gold Beach as straightforward but the evidence points to a different reality. Armour supported the infantry landing and prior bombing was intended to weaken German defences; however, the bulk of the bombing landed too far inland, and many craft foundered in difficult conditions at sea. It was the tenacity of the assault units and the flexibility of the follow up units which enabled the Gold landing to secure the right flank of the British Army in Normandy. Using detailed primary evidence from The National Archives and the Imperial War Museum, this volume provides a substantial assessment of the background to the landing on Gold, and analyses the events of D-Day in the wider context of the Normandy Campaign.

'This is a marvellous book. The research is very thorough and it will answer all my questions.' – RICHARD WILLIS, Normandy veteran, first lieutenant on LCT 898 on D-Day 'Brings to life ... the planning and execution of the largest amphibious landing which the world has ever seen ... My grandfather... would have been most impressed by this detailed research.' – CAPTAIN WILL RAMSAY, grandson of Admiral Sir Bertram Ramsay, Allied Naval Commander, Expeditionary Force D-Day, one of the most decisive moments of the Second World War, could not have happened without thousands of landing craft. Yet their role, and that of their crews, has often been overlooked. During a combined operation that involved aerial and naval assaults, as well as amphibious landings on a vast scale, more than 132,000 Allied troops landed on the Normandy beaches on 6 June 1944. Through their efforts, the tide of the war turned for the final time to favour the Allies. There is no overstating the contribution of the landing craft and their crews on the first day of Operation Neptune, and yet it is often overlooked. In D-Day Landing Craft, historian Andrew Whitmarsh turns his attention to these vital vessels that ensured the operation's success. He describes events on each of the five Allied beaches on D-Day from the perspective of landing craft, landing ships and their crews. He examines why there were so many different types of landing craft and how they were built over several years in both the UK and North America, despite many competing war production requirements and operational demands. This closely researched and well-illustrated account is essential to anyone who wants to fully understand the course of D-Day, and the nature of Allied preparations for the campaign.

Abstract : Over the years many studies have been completed on the carrying capacity of specific recreational activities. These studies generally focus on the factors and interactions that are limiting the growth of an area and what barriers need to be removed to allow for this growth. This study looks specifically at the perception of carrying capacity of Gold Coast beaches and the way in which they are used by tourists and locals. For the purpose of this study the definition of Beach Carrying Capacity is the perceived number of people that can fit comfortably on a beach, including the surf zone, before adversely affecting an individual person{u2019}s beach recreation experience and/or the surrounding environment. Beach usage encompasses all activities participated along any adjacent infrastructure including parks and oceanway, sandy beach and surf zone areas including swimming, surfing, walking, sunbaking and picnicking. During the research period a short questionnaire was produced and applied to a range of people along various Gold Coast beaches and within Griffith University. The questionnaire looked at what people used the beach for and how they perceived the crowding on the beaches. Results showed that the carrying capacity on Gold Coast beaches, by the survey respondents{u2019} perceptions, has already been reached on some of the Gold Coast{u2019}s most popular beaches. The study then looked at and compared the results from the Portugal study (da Silva, 2002) to those obtained on the Gold Coast. Results showed that the survey data collected from the two locations does not differ greatly. Perceptions of beach carrying capacity and the general activities people used the beach for were uniform in both study locations. This study highlights the importance of beach monitoring as it allows us to determine what people are using the beach for and how they would like them to be used. The information obtained about how people are using the beaches will provide valuable data to coastal councils and coastal management authorities to help future beach planning and management. Recommendations are made to enhance and continue future beach monitoring research with the use of current beach camera technology such as CoastalCOMS.
