Andrew Jackson Higgins is perhaps the most forgotten hero of the Allied victory. He designed the LCVP (landing craft vehicle, personnel) that played such a vital role in the invasion of Normandy. Jerry Strahan's biography of Higgins reveals a colourful, controversial character, who was an outsider to New Orleans' elite social circles.
