Arnhem 1944: Operation 'Market Garden': Campaign

Autor Dr Stephen Badsey
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 mai 1993
A compact, illustrated exploration of one of the most audacious, and ultimately controversial, operations of the Second World War.

'Market Garden' was a joint penetration, by an armoured column and a large-scale airborne drop, to punch a decisive hole in the German defences. If it had succeeded, the war could have ended in 1944. Yet the two-pronged attack failed in its objectives.

This book details how, instead of being relieved after 48 hours as expected, British paratroopers were cut off for nine days. Facing two unexpected SS Panzer divisions the Allies were eventually evacuated across the Rhine after putting up an incredible fight: of the 10,000 men involved less than 2,000 survived.
