SAS daggers drawn : in for the kill - the mavericks who made the SAS

Lewis, Damien2025
Books
Summer 1944: the SAS were charged with the most crucial D-Day missions, taking on the might of the Nazi Reich deep behind enemy lines. Facing Hitler's fearsome Panzer divisions with little more than raw courage and their nimble Willys jeeps, it would take maverick thinking and unconventional warfare to survive and overcome. Hunted at every turn, Blair 'Paddy' Mayne's SAS would face a bitter and bloody struggle to topple the enemy. Drawing on never-before-seen archive material, military historian Damien Lewis brings to life the incredible efforts of the SAS as they dared all to bring the war to its close.
