The Giant Book of SAS and Elite Forces – comprising two books in one – reveals the heroism it takes to count yourself among the world’s elite soldiers.

Shrouded in mystery, relatively little is known about many elite forces. You can read about heroic British SAS exploits in the Falklands and in breaking the siege at Princes Gate, and details of their weaponry and tactics.

Also included are first-hand accounts of the astonishing bravery of the other elite forces of the world - the American defence of Bastogne during the WW2 Battle of the Bulge, the 1st Air Cavalry's amazing military feats at la Drang in Vietnam and the Gloucester Regiment's stand at Imjin River, Korea.

Featured too are Popski’s Private Army, Israeli Paras, Italian 10th MAS (1941), the Flying Tigers, British Commandos, US Marines, French Foreign Legion, US Special Forces, SBS, 1st Air Cavalry, SS special troops, US Naval SEALs, Belgian SAS Regiment, Merrill’s Marauders and many more.

The Giant Book of SAS and Elite Forces by Jon E Lewis was published in 1996 by The Book Company, London.

Comprising two books in one (277 and 274 pages each), it is a 13.5x21cm soft cover in great condition.
