The Dutch people suffered a great deal during the winter of 1944 - 1945 in the aftermath of British Field Marshall Montgomery's failed plan of September 1944.
An excellent book: A Bridge Too Far, written by Cornelius Ryan tells the story of Montgomery's ill conceived offensive.
At or near the end of the book the King of the Netherlands leaves no doubt as his feelings about the suffering of the Dutch people during the winter of '44-'45, since the country remained under the control of the German army.
There is a movie with the same name. I would give it only a poor to fair rating.
I read the book when I was in Junior High School and loved it. I was quite excited when the movie came out but when I watched it I thought it stank on ice. A real disappointment.
Many of us rate both the book and film as classics.
There are several tremendous books written about Op Market Garden, mostly of course British, but also German and American. It Never Snows in September is THE classic work from the German angle, written by a British ex-military man turned author/historian.
