A propos de cet article

The Phantom Major. The Story of David Stirling and the S.A.S. Regiment by Virginia Cowles. Publisher: Collins Clear-type Press, London, 1958, First Edition, first printing. Good hardback with jacket. A little compression to spine ends and corners, slight fading to edges, name and bookseller's stamp to ffep, light tanning to end-papers, some creasing and foxing to pages. Jacket is unclipped with rubbing, chipping, marks and foxing. Some loss to edges. 320 pages. In the dark and uncertain days of 1941 and 1942, when Rommel's Afrika Korps was sweeping towards Egypt and the Suez Canal, a small group of daring raiders made history for the Allies. They operated deep behind the German lines, driving hundreds of miles through the deserts of North Africa. They hid by day and struck by night, destroying aircraft, blowing up ammunition dumps, derailing trains and killing many times their own number. The men were the Special Air Service, the SAS, the brainchild of David Stirling, a deceptively mild-mannered man with a brilliant idea. Under his command, small teams of resourceful, highly trained men penetrated beyond the front lines of the opposing armies and wreaked havoc where the Germans least expected it. Virginia Cowles's The Phantom Major is a classic account of these raids, an amazing tale of courage, impudence and daring, packed with action and high adventure. Her narrative, based on the eyewitness testimony of the men who took part, gives a fascinating insight into the early years of the SAS. ALL PHOTOS ARE OF THE ACTUAL BOOK. All books are sent with free courier postage within New Zealand.…
