Reviews

This is an important and timely operational analysis of events of September 1944. It is a mark of my respect for Anthony Tucker-Jones's work that I wish I had researched and written The Devil's Bridge. Thus I am more than happy to commend his scholarship to you. -- Professor Peter Caddick-Adams A gripping narrative from a less familiar viewpoint - that of Holland's occupiers. -- Dr Graham Goodlad A fine sense of detail and character makes this a thrilling and unusual read. -- Tim Newark Interestingly examining the actions of the German forces that led to Arnhem. -- Robin Buckland
