"Another great (and easy to read) account of Burgett's daily experiences in WWII, but this time during Operation Market-Garden. Burgett describes what must have been a strange mixture of terror, grief, and adrenaline as he and his buddies did everything they could to complete their missions while staying alive. I'm looking forward to reading the next installment!"
"Second installment. Follow the author into Holland and the disaster that was Operation Market Garden. Better than the first book-if that is possible."
"I read this the year that I went to Holland for the anniversary of Operation Market Garden, so seeing some of the places, the country..and being a granddaughter of a US paratrooper made this especially important to read."
