The Paras : from the Falklands to Afghanistan in their own words
Arthur, Max (Military historian)2018
Books
This is the definitive history of the iconic Parachute Regiment, told through the voices of over 200 of the soldiers themselves. From the daring raids of WWII through Northern Ireland, The Falklands, Bosnia and Afghanistan, the Paras have a reputation for being where the fighting is fiercest and the odds of survival are often stacked heavily against them. The gripping, visceral first person narrative makes this title stand apart from conventional regimental histories.
