Description
The Battle Re-Examined: A New Perspective on Operation Market Garden The 80th anniversary of the Arnhem Rhine crossing has sparked renewed debate about the battle's justification and success. This book offers a fresh examination of Operation Market Garden, exploring its strategic, operational, and tactical aspects. Two acknowledged experts shed new light on the roles of key commanders and the effectiveness of airborne forces. The authors scrutinize the decisions made by senior commanders, including the choice of landing and drop zones, and the actions of local commanders and troops on the ground. A detailed analysis of the VIII and XII Corps of Second Army and General Dempsey's command reveals new insights into the battle. This book will be of interest to both military historians and those new to the subject, offering a valuable and thought-provoking account of a pivotal moment in World War II history. Hardcover, 256 pages.
