From the secret SAS archives, and acclaimed author Ben Macintyre:
the first ever authorized history of the SAS Penguin presents the
unabridged, downloadable, audiobook edition of SAS: Rogue Heroes,
written and read by Ben MacIntyre. 'Impeccably researched, superbly
told - by far the best book on the SAS in World War II' - Antony
Beevor In the summer of 1941, at the height of the war in the
Western Desert, a bored and eccentric young officer, David
Stirling, came up with a plan that was radical and entirely against
the rules: a small undercover unit that would inflict mayhem behind
enemy lines. Despite intense opposition, Winston Churchill
personally gave Stirling permission to recruit the toughest,
brightest and most ruthless soldiers he could find. So began the
most celebrated and mysterious military organisation in the world:
the SAS. Now, 75 years later, the SAS has finally decided to tell
its astonishing story. It has opened its secret archives for the
first time, granting historian Ben Macintyre full access to a
treasure trove of unseen reports, memos, diaries, letters, maps and
photographs, as well as free rein to interview surviving Originals
and those who knew them. The result is an exhilarating tale of
fearlessness and heroism, recklessness and tragedy; of
extraordinary men who were willing to take monumental risks. It is
a story about the meaning of courage.
