WW2 - A Bridge Too Far, Cornelius Ryan

€4

Very Good Condition Hardback, 1974. Can post if required.
In the annals of the British Army there are many glorious deeds, drawing great strength and inspiration from past traditions, and endeavoured to live up to the high standards of those who have gone before. But there can be few episodes more glorious than the epic of Arnhem, and those that follow after will find it hard to live up to the standards that you have set ...

In years to come it will be a great thing for a man to be able to say: 'I fought at Arnhem'.

Extract from a letter from Field Marshal B. L. Montgomery to members of First Airborne Division after the battle.
