Description: |
Untold Stories from the Falklands Campaign. Many books have been published on the Falklands War; but this is the first one only to include interviews with the ordinary seamen, marines, soldiers and airmen who achieved that victory, as well as those whose contribution is often overlooked - the merchant seaman who crewed ships taken up from trade, the NAAFI personnel who supplied the all-important treats that kept spirits up, the Hong Kong Chinese laundrymen who were aboard every warship. Published to mark the 30th anniversary of the conflict, this is the story of what ''Britain''s last colonial war'' was really like. |
