Description: Britain's Special Air services or SAS was the brain child of David Stirling a young aristocrat who's aimlessness belied a remarkable strategic mind. Where most of his colleagues looked at a World War II Battlefield map and saw a protracted struggle, Sterling saw an opportunity: given a small number of elite man, he could parachute behind Nazi lines in sabotage the airplanes and supplies. Defying his superiors confrontational wisdom, Stirling assembled a revolutionary fighting force that would upend not just the balance of the war, but the nature of combat itself. Bringing his keen eyes for detail to a riveting wartime narrative, Ben Macintyre uses his unprecedented access to the SAS archives to shiny light on the imaginary unions long shrouded in secrecy.
