Book Details

A powerful and authentic account of WWII from 101-year-old veteran John Humphreys, from boy soldier in the Royal Engineers to jumping into Arnhem with the Parachute Regiment in 1944, spearheading the attack on the bridge. For days they held on, outnumbered and outgunned by a German army fighting to the last bullet. But the Bridge Too Far is only the climax of this extraordinary story. Coinciding with the 80th anniversary of Operation MARKET GARDEN, The Last Para is be the final firsthand account of this legendary action, told with incredible honesty and irrepressible spirit.
