Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'While [Ashby] built a very successful post-war career and family, he never escaped the sense of betrayal the Army placed on his shoulders. His ability to communicate these emotions throughout the book makes reading it even more worthwhile.' --The Journal of the Air Force Historical FoundationFoot soldiers, commandos, parachutists, naval seamen, bomber and fighter pilots - their varied personal experiences of the Second World War have been widely recounted, and the parts they played in the conflict are well known.
