A GRIPPING SPECIAL FORCES TRUE STORY FOR FANS OF DELTA FORCE, LONE
SURVIVOR AND BLACK HAWK DOWN Before Seal Team Six, before Delta
Force, there was the SAS. This is the story of the do-or-die battle
that entered Special Forces legend - an epic defence of freedom
that stopped a Communist insurgency in its tracks. In 1970, British
Special Forces flew into to Middle East to lead a fierce, secret
war against a Chinese trained army that threatened the stability of
the whole region. Supported by an elite band of pilots flying jets
and helicopters the SAS waged war against the enemy. Then at dawn
on July 19th, 1972, a force of 300 heavily armed guerillas launched
an assault on the town of Mirbat. Between them and victory stood
juts nine SAS men. This is the story of that epic battle. 'A rare
insight into the battle that defined the modern SAS' Colonel Tim
Collins 'Gripping, revealing and extraordinarily well-researched
... a riveting new account of a little known, but crucial war’
Sir Ranulph Fiennes `This gripping page-turner of a book switches
from action on the ground to that in the air more vividly than any
I have read ... highly recommended.’ Aeroplane Magazine
