Operation Market Garden, the plan to end the war by capturing the bridges leading to Arnhem on the Lower Rhine was a bold concept. But could it ever have worked? The cost of failure was horrendous, above all for the Dutch who risked everything to help. German reprisals were pitiless and cruel, and lasted until the end of the war.

The British fascination for heroic failure has clouded the story of Arnhem in myths. Antony Beevor, using often overlooked sources from Dutch, British, American, Polish and German archives, has reconstructed the terrible reality of the fighting.
