Description
8vo., Second Edition, with 18 plates on 8; brown cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper, the latter lightly sunned at backstrip. In the war in North Africa, LRDG (Long Range Desert Group), forerunner of the SAS, won a reputation out of all proportion to its size and short existence. Lloyd Owen's classic account of Y2 Patrol was first published by Cassell in 1957 and now appears for the first time in the Special Forces Library. SCARCE, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION. Enser, p.251 (recording the first edition).
