520 _aOperation Market Garden: a plan to capture the bridge over the Rhine at Arnhem and outflank the German front. In all, thirty-five thousand airborne troops were to land, either by parachute or glider, at three drop zones and move towards their objective. As the world now knows the mission was to be 'a bridge too far' for the British forces. Mike Rossiter has interviewed three of the survivors of that fateful day, each involved in a different flank of the British attack, and in vivid detail reconstructs the events that lead up to this most famous of glorious defeats.- Google Books
