| Publisher Description: A brief history of the Falklands War 1982, told through the eyes of those that were there. Graphic accounts of all the battles from the landings in May to the surrender in June. Andy Brinkworth was a survivor of the attack on the landing ship RFA Sir Galahad on the 8th June 1982, he was badly injured. He returned 30 years later to lay a lot of ghost to rest. This is his story of a 30 year battle to come to terms with his grief at the loss of so many of his Brothers-in-Arms. Some fantastic photography aids the reader with a chronologically told Falklands War history lesson. You will undestand after reading how the war was fought and how it was won but also see how modern day fighting sometimes still has to be fought in an old fashion way. Compelling reading. |
