The Battle of Arnhem is one of the best-known stories in British military history: a daring but thwarted attempt to secure a vital bridgehead across the Rhine in order to end the war before Christmas. It is always written about, with the benefit of unerring 20/20 hindsight, as being doomed to fail, but the men who fought there, men of military legend, didn't know that that was to be their fate. By focusing on the events of one day as they happened through the eyes of the British participants, Al Murray offers a very different perspective to a familiar narrative.

Author’s Note This collection was written almost entirely while intoxicated, or else with a hangover the day after a binge. It’s something I typically avoid, and have coined a term for: WUI—writing under the influence—as a sort of reminder that it should largely be considered a bad thing. I cannot deny, however, that writing in this state accesses some of the nether regions of my brain that remain otherwise closed off. So, over the space of several months, I stopped deleting or throwing away the drunken keyboard poundings or notebook scribblings I would find the morning after a good...
