Description
8vo., First Edition, with plates and double-page map, tape marks on front free endpaper, top and fore-edge lightly spotted; red cloth, gilt back, a very good, bright, clean copy in price-clipped dustwrapper. Bright copy of an SAS classic. 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 is a key account. THE ORIGINAL EDITION IS EXTREMELY SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION. Enser, p.251.
