May 1940: As Nazi forces swept through France and Belgium, one Battalion defied the odds to hold the line.
The 2nd Bn Royal Scots Fusiliers, outnumbered and outgunned but never outmatched in courage, stood resolute at Arras and Ypres. Their desperate stands bought precious time for the British Expeditionary Force to escape, paving the way for the Miracle of Dunkirk.
Their heroism was lost to history, their records destroyed - until now.
After 20 years of tireless research, Captain Iain Miskimmin resurrects their story, uncovering the remarkable bravery of ordinary soldiers in the face of unimaginable adversity. Co-authored with renowned Military Historian Ricky D Phillips, "Not A Foot Back" reveals the truth behind one of the most critical moments of World War II.
Through powerful first-hand accounts from both sides, this book brings to life the human cost of war and the extraordinary courage that changed history. It's not just a war story: it's a tribute to resilience, sacrifice and the indomitable spirit of those who refused to retreat.
Prepare to see Dunkirk in a new light...
