'Al Murray has convincingly exposed a number of aspects that no-one has ever considered before and with highly conclusive results. This is an utterly brilliant work of history: compelling, entertaining, in parts truly shocking, profound, revelatory, full of wisdom and delivering a mass of totally fresh material. The twenty-hour time frame is inspired, and despite focusing on only one day of fighting, this book really is the last word on the Battle of Arnhem.'

'Superb. By focusing on a single day, Al Murray's Arnhem reintroduces the element of jeopardy to this famous battle and reminds us that, for the participants, nothing was set in stone.
