Sir Antony Beevor ( K , 60-64 ) presents his latest offering : Arnhem – The Battle of the Bridges 1944 , which is published this month . Operation Market Garden , the plan to end the war by capturing the bridges leading to the Lower Rhine and beyond , was a bold concept : the Americans thought it unusually so for Field Marshal Montgomery . But the cost of failure was horrendous , above all for the Dutch who risked everything to help . German reprisals were cruel and lasted until the end of the war . Viking ; ISBN : 978-0670918669 .
A chance viewing of a picture in London ’ s National Gallery has inspired Mark Byford ’ s book The Annunciation : A Pilgrim ’ s Quest . The early-18thcentury painting by French artist François Lemoyne , on loan from Winchester College , depicts the encounter between Angel Gabriel and the Virgin Mary , as described by Luke ’ s Gospel . That meeting may be a pivotal point in Christianity , but has the status and significance of the Annunciation been lost in today ’ s world ? Journalist Mark Byford searches for the spiritual meaning of the biblical story through intimate conversations with more than a hundred senior clerics , world-renowned theologians , historians and artists . People speak as never before about the personal and profound impact that the Annunciation story has had on their lives . Winchester University Press ; ISBN : 978-1906113254 .
