WINNER OF THE MILITARY HISTORY MATTERS AWARD 'Hart is a historian
and author at the peak of his powers' Richard van Emden The best
way to understand what it was like to fight in the Second World War
is to see it through the eyes of the soldiers who fought it. The
South Notts Hussars fought at almost every major battle of the
Second World War, from the Siege of Tobruk to the Battle of El
Alamein and the D-Day Landings. Here, Peter Hart draws on detailed
interviews conducted with members of the regiment, to provide both
a comprehensive account of the conflict and reconstruct its most
thrilling moments in the words of the men who experienced it. This
is military history at its best: outlining the path from despair to
victory, and allowing us to share in soldiers' hopes and fears; the
deafening explosions of the shells, the scream of the diving Stukas
and the wounded; the pleasures of good comrades and the devastating
despair at lost friends.
