piotrjawor 's review for:

Arnhem: The Battle for the Bridges, 1944 by Antony Beevor

5.0

---

There too many good reasons to give this book 5 stars.
I'd just pick up three:
- perfectly balanced narrative: we have both fighting sides speaking in full voice, with so many amazing quotes and stories;
- very special attention to the Dutch civilians - practically an equal third party of the whole story;
- and (I must say that) another justice - given so much too late - to Polish soldiers.
Respect, Mr. Beevor, sincere respect and gratitude.

Excellent, excellent book.
