Paperback. Etat : New. Dennis, Peter; Shumate, Johnny; Gilliland, Alan (illustrateur). Specially commissioned artwork, archive photographs and expert analysis combine to tell the absorbing story of the SAS's legendary raid on Sidi Haneish at the height of World War II.The night of July 26, 1942 saw one of the most audacious raids of World War II, just as the outcome of that conflict hung in the balance. In North Africa, a convoy of 18 Allied jeeps carrying Special Air Service personnel appeared out of the early-morning darkness and drove onto the Axis landing strip at Sidi Haneish in the Egyptian desert. Within the space of a few savage minutes 18 Axis aircraft were ablaze; a dozen more were damaged and scores of guards lay dead or wounded. The men responsible for the raid then vanished into the night as swiftly as they had arrived, prompting the Germans to dub the enemy leader, David Stirling, 'The Phantom Major'. Featuring full-colour artwork, gripping narrative and incisive analysis, this engaging study recounts the origins, planning, execution and aftermath of the daring raid that made the name of the SAS at the height of World War II.

Paperback. Etat : New. Dennis, Peter; Shumate, Johnny; Gilliland, Alan (illustrateur). A detailed, illustrated analysis of the British Commandos' audacious attempt to assassinate Rommel in 1941.In November 1941, a small party of British Commandos landed by submarine in Libya, tasked with the assassination of General Erwin Rommel, commander of the German forces in North Africa, who was believed to be staying in a villa near the coast. Three men - Lt-Col Geoffrey Keyes, Capt Robin Campbell and Sgt Jack Terry - stormed the villa, but the German general was nowhere to be found. In the confused fighting Keyes was killed and Campbell wounded; only two raiders would escape, one of whom was Terry. The raid made headlines round the free world, and Keyes was awarded a posthumous Victoria Cross. Yet in truth the raid had been a glorious failure, a mission bedevilled by bad planning and poor intelligence. Even so, crucial lessons were learned, particularly by the Special Air Service - who carried out their first mission on the same night as the raid on Rommel's HQ.

Group, The Mirror (illustrateur). 1st Edition. 1st ed., 1st printing ; 196 pages : illustrations ; 25 x 31 cm ; ISBN 9781849084246, 1849084246 ; OCLC 503042136 ; LCCN 2010549497 ; LOC No D760.8.L7 M625 2010 ; Dewey 942/.1 ; Contents: Introduction : the calm before the storm, September 1939 to September 1940 -- Hell from on high : September 1940 -- London can take it! Autumn 1940 -- Business as usual : November 1940 in London -- Coventrated : the devastation of Coventry, 14 November 1940 -- The second great fire of London : 29 December 1940 -- Britain gets blitzed : January to April 1941 -- No mercy for Merseyside : May 1941 -- Hellfire : 10 May 1941 -- V is for vengence : 1944 and 1945 ; The winter of 1940-41 was the season of the Blitz. From St Paul's Cathedral to the East End, from the very heart of the capital to the cities of the midlands, throughout the length and breadth of the land the bombs rained down as Germany attempted to bludgeon Britain into submission. As the civilian populations below cowered in their shelters or manned the fire services, there could be no doubt that this was an island under siege. ; Drawing exclusively on the photo archive of the Mirror newspaper group this volume brings to life this extraordinary period in British history. Remarkably a number of these images have never seen the light of day before thanks to wartime censors and now, 70 years after the fact, they reveal for the first time the harsh realities of life and death during the Blitz. ; Written by Gavin Mortimer, who has previously published The Longest Night: Voices from the London Blitz (Orion 2005), this book weaves together these incredible images with newspaper articles, diary entries and first-hand accounts to create a compelling chronological account of Britain's darkest and most difficult period in her long history. ; FINE/FINE.
