Default A Sapper At Arnhem

Whilst I'm sure that some people already have this book, I feel it would be good to mention it again as it's now down to the last 40 copies......

Once these are gone there will be no more.......

If you haven't got it and can get it, do get it! Its the kind of book I love; well written, engaging, a personal memoir and very well produced. Brings the world of ww2 from the strategy kind books, right in your lap.....
