      The full, boots-on-the-ground story of the Falklands War, from a soldier at the heart of the action.

      ''A no holdout account of the Falklands War from a man who was in the fight.'' Andy McNab

      Tony Hoare always knew he wanted to be in the SAS and so, after working his way through the ranks, he passed arduous SAS selection in 1978.

      Less than four years later, Tony and his team were sent to the Falklands, just off the coast of Argentina, where tensions were rising and war was on the horizon. Nothing could have prepared him for what happened over the course of the next 12 weeks, as the Falkland Islands became a battleground between the British and Argentinians. As helicopters crashed and ships sank, Tony battled across treacherous terrain to help reclaim the islands from a fearsome enemy.

      This is a thrilling account of the Falklands from a trooper who saw it all.
