 "Enlarge Image")
The author is a veteran of the Second World War and served as a tank crew member in the Western Desert with the Royal Gloucestrshire Hussars. Larry Birkin of the Royal Gloucestershire Hussars Research Committee writes that this is “a history that complements and in many respects encompasses all contemporary text and rightfully deserves its place on every bookshelf in the county of Gloucestershire and beyond.”
This book places the Second World War history of 2nd Royal Gloucestershire Hussars properly in its context in the Desert War, focusing in particular upon the actions and battles of Operation Crusader, El Gubi, Sidi Rezegh, Gazala, Fist Alamein and Alam Halfa.
