Articles liés à A Tour of the Arnhem Battlefields
Synopsis
Although the Battle of Arnhem was fought over sixty years ago. It still evokes such interest that it would seem to rank with the great victories of Agincourt, Trafalgar, Waterloo and the Battle of Britain, all of which proved to be turning points in the history of our nation. Arnhem was not a victory, but its outcome may have had results equally vital to the more recent history of the world. To many people the Battle of Arnhem was the Battle of Arnhem Bridge, which has now passed into history as "The Bridge Too Far". This is understandable, for the bridge was the main objective of the 1st British Airborne Division. The north end was captured and held for three days, thus denying its use to the Germans, which proved crucial to the success gained by the rest of Operation Market Garden. As a battle guide this book leaves nothing out, illustrated with maps and photographs, the author takes the reader through the battle with extensive use of first hand accounts.

As a battle guide this book leaves nothing out, illustrated with maps and photographs, the author takes the reader through the battle with extensive use of first hand accounts. AUTHOR: John Waddy is an author and historian. 100 colour and b/w illustrations The film A Bridge Too Far introduced the Battle of Arnhem to a world-wide audience, and since then this tragic airborne operation has taken its proper place among the most dramatic events in military history. It was intended that Allied airborne divisions would capture a series of bridges behind German lines and be joined by rapidly advancing ground forces, thus greatly shortening the war. The U.S. 82nd and 101st Airborne divisions landed within reach of supporting armored units, but the British 1st Airborne Division drew the assignment of landing at Arnhem, the "bridge too far" behind German lines. Quickly surrounded by two SS panzer divisions whose presence had been missed by Allied reconnaissance, the British paratroopers were defeated after one of military history's greatest "last stands." Today thousands visit the Arnhem area. Arnhem veteran John Waddy has produced a detailed guide, heavily illustrated with maps and photographs, that will greatly aid visitors and will be of enormous value to anyone studying the battle.
