Number of Pages: 280


Bryan Perrett has created 12 fictional soliders, all based on recorded accounts, and put them at the heart of actions already familiar to readers. None of the protagonists is ranked higher than company commander; some are professionals, some volunteers or conscripts, none especially heroic. The actions range from Mons in 1918, through World Wars I and II to Malaya in 1956, Vietnam in 1968 and Kuwait in 1991. In a mix of dialogue, reportage and objective historical analysis - "faction" - Briyan Perrett brings the reality of war to the reader in a direct narrative.
