A Drop Too Many by John Frost
No-one who has read of Arnhem can have failed to have been inspired by gallantry of the 2nd Parachute Regiment, which held the north end of the key road bridge over the Rhine not for 24 hours, for which it was equipped, but for 3 days and 4 nights. Their sacrifice stands as one of the most heroic defences of all time. Though written with modesty and humour, the book is shot through with the fire and determination of the fighting soldier, and throws important new light on many controversies, not only those of Arnhem. This book is a major contribution to the literature of the last war.
Hailed as a classic on its publication in 1980, the demand for General Frost's memoirs has been considerable.
