Nijmegen: U.S. 82nd Airborne Division - 1944 (okładka  miękka)

The 82nd Airborne Division fought some of its most desperate battles in support of the British landings at Arnhem, yet these actions are little known today. The British operation pre-supposed that key bridges linking Arnhem with the advancing Allied reinforcements would be captured before they could be destroyed by the Germans. The bridge across the Waal River at Nijmegen was especially important and it was assigned to the U.S. 82nd Airborne Division.

Backed up by tanks of Britain's Grenadier Guards, the 82nd achieved its objectives, although Operation Market Garden as a whole was less than successful. All of the units, personalities and actions of this desperate battle are covered in the acclaimed Battleground Europe style. This heavily illustrated work also contains a guide to the battle sites, monuments and local facilities as they are today.
