Bridge Too Far
Why was the battle at Arnhem, Operation Market Garden called "a bridge too far"?
Why was the battle at Arnhem, Operation Market Garden referred to as "a bridge too far"?
It was a two part operation. The "Market " part was an Allied parachute drop on the town of Arnhem. The "Garden" part was of the operation was that the Allied 30th Corps (ground forces) were supposed to advance along one road to Arnhem and link up with the paratroops in Arnhem. However, there were several bridges on the one road to Arnhem. The Germans stopped the 30th Corps from crossing the last bridge and the paratroopers in Arnhem were surrounded and forced to surrender.
It's since been said that Operation Market Garden failed because the 30th Corps had to fight one "bridge to far."

A Bridge Too Far: The Classic History Of The Greatest Battle Of World War II $7.49 THE CLASSIC ACCOUNT OF ONE OF THE MOST DRAMATIC BATTLES OF WORLD WAR II A Bridge Too Far is Cornelius Ryan's masterly chronicle of the Battle of Arnhem, which marshalled the greatest armada of troop-carrying aircraft ever assembled and cost the Allies nearly twice as many casualties as D-Day. In this compelling work of history, Ryan narrates the Allied effort to end the war in Europe in 1944 by dropping the combined airborne forces of the American and British armies behind German lines to capture the crucial bridge across the Rhine at Arnhem. Focusing on a vast cast of characters -- from Dutch civilians to British and American strategists to common soldiers and commanders -- Ryan brings to life one of the most daring and ill-fated operations of the war. A Bridge Too Far superbly recreates the terror and suspense, the heroism and tragedy of this epic operation, which ended in bitter defeat for the Allies. |
