'Ammunition exhausted ... God Save the King.' THE greatest airborne
operation in history commenced on 17 September 1944. Nine days
later, nearly four out of five of the British 1st Airborne Division
and their Polish comrades would be killed, wounded or captured as
Germany secured her last great battlefield victory of the war. The
ferocious and gallant actions in Arnhem and Oosterbeek have
fascinated historians and students ever since. Drawing extensively
on eyewitness accounts and unit diaries to provide a detailed
tactical and technical analysis of the arms, equipment and
practices of the day, Arnhem: Nine Days of Battle offers a
fascinating day-by- day account of one of the most iconic actions
of the Second World War. Supported by battle maps, timelines, troop
diagrams as well as touring guides - this is the perfect companion
for the armchair historian or the intrepid battlefield traveller.
