    Hi All,

    I wonder if I should put up my Mibblebrook Arnhem book Paul as seen it.. There are 20 pages all signed by Veterans starting from 2004 to 2009.. Then again the same book with 1 Veteran which started all this that was Frank Hargrave there is a nice photo of him in By Land Sea and Air page 102...

    I think that the copy of Middlebrook's book that is to be seen (and envied) is the one owned by Vince the Croydon Bobby (now retired) who attends Arnhem each year. I think that he has literally hundreds of vets signatures in his copy.

    My copy is Dutch only, only General Urquhart's introduction is in English:confused:
    and it is also from 1946.

    Ron...

    You're right Ron, it's the same one. I have two copies (one with D/J and one without) and only the intro is in English........:)

    As far as I know the first time Kate Ter Horst's story was published in English was in this book. It was later produced in 1959 in the first hardback copy (second pic) :)............

    "Cloud over Arnhem" HB 1st Edition will do 60 pounds or more Paul. You can't buy it for less here in Holland.

    A Merry Christmas to you all
