An absorbing story of derring-do, told with skill and flair.”—Wall Street Journal“[A] riveting new history… Macintyre has produced yet another wonderful book… even minor characters bristle with life…. This is the spot in the book review where I’m supposed to find some point to quibble with, some omission, some historical inaccuracy, some flaw. Sorry to disappoint. The fact is Macintyre has produced yet another wonderful book. As Captain What What might have put it, this is a ripping good read.”—The Washington Post 400 pagesAlso please be advised that I only sell/ship in the United States.Shipping discountIf you wish to purchase more than one item under my respective listings please advise me via a e-bay e-mail so I can invoice you with a revised shipping amount.I accept pay pal only.The pictures I provided were taken by me (i.e., they are not google images).PLEASE NOTE ANY PICTURE THAT HAS A GLARE IS FROM THE LIGHTS ABOVE.
