Terror, Torture, Death...It was kill first or be killed for these men who fought their own private hit-and-run war.True accounts of World War II heroic secret raiders whose daring missions behind enemy lines changed the course of the war. Ten accounts of high courage and dedication-stories of the suicidal missions of the World War II."e;"e;Courage knows no nationality"e;-and it might be added-bounds-which a collection of now-it-can-be-told tales attempts to prove. Mr. Sanderson's stories focus on surpassing daring, audacity and cunning-to match any act of heroism on the field of battle. Usually these intrepid escapades were the work of one ingenious planner; sometimes, however, whole crews engaged in death-defying sorties. The writing catches the spirit of these men with realism and drama, whether the story deals with an incredible plot to kill Rommel (which didn't come off); the disposal of an embryonic Nazi A bomb in Norway in 1943; a "e;cockleshell"e; raid along a Nazi-held river; or the grim humor of Britain's only private, "e;independent"e; army-Popski's Army, fighting alongside the Tommies in Tunisia.... Good cloak-and-dagger stuff that points up the fact that even the Armed Services had great need of wildly imaginative non-conformists.... For the boys-or men-who are commandos in spirit."e;-Kirkus Reviews
