A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

The Long Range Desert Group was Britain's original Special Force in the Western Desert, long before the SAS. This is the inside story of the LRDG raiders of World War II, written from the unpublished records of the force. The unit won mastery of the North African desert in its wide-ranging and heavily armed trucks, earning praise even from Rommel, the Desert Fox, for their skilful reconnaissance, punishing raids and powers of evasion. A full list of serving members from the UK and abroad is included.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The exclusive, authorised inside story of the tough Lrdg radiers of the Second World War, drawn from the unpublished records of the famous force. The unit won unrivalled mastery of the North African desert in their wide-ranging and heavily armed trucks, earning grudging praise even from Rommel, the Desert Fox himself, for their skilful reconnaissance, punishing raids and powers of evasion.
