As a division the men earned the respect of friend and foe alike, and this is their story. Amply illustrated with 36 photographs, 18 maps and battle plans (many coloured) that help the reader to follow the course of the conflict. A good index (persons, units and place names) and a statistical battle casualties list complete this good WW2 Divisional History.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMontgomery commented on the 51st: \"Of the many fine divisions that served under me in the Second World War, none were finer than the Highland Division\", and later \"It was the only infantry division in the armies of the British Empire that accompanied me during the whole of the long march from Alamein to Berlin\".\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e J.
