This WWII battlefield guide offers a detailed history of the Allied Liberation of Nijmegen during Operation Market Garden—with maps and photos throughout. On September 17th, 1944, the 82nd Airborne dropped Allied parachute infantry along the Waal River in the Netherlandish city of Nijmegen. Their goal was to seize the city’s two major bridges and reinforce the British troops in nearby Arnhem. Though the Allied forces faced a desperate struggle, they ultimately secured both bridges and liberated the city. This comprehensive guide offers detailed information on all of the units, personalities and actions of this heroic episode in the Allies’ failed Operation Market Garden. Fully illustrated with maps and photographs, this volume covers all the monuments and major battle sites, as well as contemporary local facilities.
