Gun Mart Magazine

This important book is packed with information. The Guards Division was formed a year before the Normandy Landings and was to play a leading role in breaking out of the beachheads and advancing through France and Belgium, crossing the Rhine and completing the victory – Highly Recommended.

An interesting book that portrays an important part of World War II through the actions of the Armored Division of the British Guard.

All in all, I am pleased that Pen & Sword have reprinted this divisional history. It is a good account of the history of this formation, and contains useful orders of battle, some good photographs, but few maps. I recommend it to anyone interested in British armoured formations during the Second World War, the campaign in North-West Europe, and Operation Market Garden in particular.

British Military History, Rob Palmer

There are maps plus a section of archive photos in the middle of the book, including portraits of some of the commanders, along with images from their training and the various battles along the way. It is a fascinating story, and written in a very readable way, not just a basic list of what happened on what day. It is great to see these older books republished, telling the story to a new generation of interested historians.
