PRE-ORDER THE ACTION-PACKED STORY OF THE WWII GROUP THAT BECAME OUR SAS, FROM ONE OF THE UK''S MOST STORIED SPECIAL FORCES OPERATORS
‘History at its gripping, fascinating finest’ – THE DAILY EXPRESS
''A must read for any military enthusiast'' JASON FOX
‘Brilliant Stuff. Reads like a thriller.’ DERMOT O’LEARY
''A heartfelt tribute . . . told by someone who''s been there and done it'' TOM PETCH
''A gripping deep dive . . . I''ve served with the author. I’ve seen courage. This book reminds you where ours came from.'' AL CARNS
War came to North Africa in June 1940. But it would be another year and half before a newly-formed SAS went into action for the first time. Until then, the job of taking the fight to the enemy in their own backyard belonged to an elite, top secret band of brothers called the Long Range Desert Group.
They were Britain’s first special forces
Born out of a pre-war club of explorers, eccentrics and mavericks, the LRDG wrote the book on covert warfare, developing new tactics, techniques and weaponry that would stand the test of time. Operating alone behind enemy lines, the men performed astonishing feats of navigation, endurance and survival. Stung by their success, Nazi propaganda branded them as highwaymen of the desert.
The LRDG mentored, supported and sometimes rescued the young SAS, and yet, disbanded at the end of the war, the unit’s remarkable exploits have been largely forgotten. But it was the LRDG who paved the way for Monty’s ultimate victory in the desert.
Drawing on his own decade’s service with UK Special Forces, author Titch Cormack brings to life the extraordinary, action-packed but little-known story of Britain’s original rogue heroes like never before.
''A heartfelt tribute to the Long Range Desert Group (LRDG), the lesser-known but pivotal unit in the story of modern special forces . . . told by someone who''s been there and done it'' TOM PETCH, AUTHOR OF SPEED, AGGRESSION, SURPRISE
''A must read for any military enthusiast . . . insightful and inspirational'' JASON FOX
''Titch Cormack spent ten years in the SBS undertaking dangerous, covert operations around the world'' THE TIMES
‘There seemed to be nothing they did not know about the desert’ DAVID STIRLING, Founder of the SAS
