Symbol of Courage

Post by Amphibian »

Just wanted to share my views on the book 'Symbol of Courage' by Max Arthur.
Bought this a few days ago off amazon, from a used book seller. Cost be about £5 including delivery which took about 4 days.

Its a complete collection of the names, ranks, regiments, and stories behind each recipient of the Victoria Cross. It's a very enjoyable read, and I would certainly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in joining the military. Above all, it makes you realise the calibre of the men who served, and the sacrifices they made to ensure the safety of our great nation.

I would also recommend these books ;

-The Cockleshell Raid by Ken Ford.
-Reasons in writing by Ewen Southby-Tailyour.
-Commando- The illustrated history of Britains green berets by David Reynolds.
-D-day Commando by Ken Ford.
-First into Action by Duncan Falconer.
