Poor History
I know its not a period of history the British Army or public are particularly proud of but after waiting weeks for this book to be published I have to say I've been mightily disappointed. For all its build up and promise to bring to life a critical chapter in the surrender of a famous Highland Division after Dunkirk it barely touches upon the story, assigning it to one small chapter near the end of the book.
Don't buy this book if you want any personal accounts or real life stories as its stuck in characterless garbage, concentrating on naming military units and their movements.
Such a shame as it promised well.
shame
All he's done is regurgitate (without acknowledgement or references) the stories told by Blaxland and Sebag-Montefiore. Worse, he doesn't even list them in the bibliography. I wouldn't waste my money
