Beschreibung

In the summer of 1944, plans began for a complex operation to seize a Rhine river bridge at Arnhem in the Netherlands. This title features photographs, maps and color artwork that complement extensive archival research revealing the successes of those American airborne missions, largely overshadowed by the failure of the operation as a whole.
