Produktbeschreibung

"A very engaging and fine tribute to a small band of men whose impact on the North African campaign in particular was quite immense." -Pegasus Archive This splendid record takes the reader behind enemy lines not only in North Africa but in Italy, the Aegean and the Balkans. The author, who commanded the LRDG, paints a vivid picture of the unit's colorful characters: for example, Ralph Bagnold who put to good use the knowledge he gained from his pre-war desert travels. The LRDG was truly international with New Zealanders and Rhodesians playing key roles. This classic book won acclaim from the critics on its first publication by virtue of the author's unique knowledge, experience and narrative skills. "This superb account, written by one of their former commanders, examines the formation of the unit, the very diverse personalities which shaped it, the North African operations, and their subsequent role in Italy and the Balkans . . . Filled with detailed descriptions of individual operations and the remarkable characters who carried them out." -Pegasus Archive
