Herman Wouk's The Winds of War / War and Remembrance books, published long ago, are a corrective to the "We took Omaha Beach, and then we won the war" American narrative. They were quite popular and made into a TV series, and they made every effort to show what people thought then, from different perspectives.
They also made it clear that it was the Soviet Union that ground down the Nazi war machine.
