SAS Band of Brothers tells the story of a dozen British soldiers
who parachuted into occupied France in 1944. What followed was a
series of daring and barely believable exploits that actually
prompted the intervention of Hitler himself. An extraordinary story
of bravery against all the odds, revenge and justice as well * BBC
Scotland *
In his gripping new book, historian Damien Lewis tells the story of
... the brave band of twelve brothers who stood between the Nazis
and the D-Day beaches * Daily Express *
'This is a quite remarkable tale. In June 1944 the SAS parachuted
deep into occupied France to wreak havoc and mayhem ... to prevent
Hitler from rushing his Panzer divisions to the DDay beaches and
driving the Allies back into the sea. What happened next is worthy
of a Hollywood movie * Talk Radio Europe *
One of the most breath-taking episodes of the entire war * Mail on
Sunday *
Author and historian Damien Lewis's latest volume, SAS Band of
Brothers ... tells the story of a remarkable Special Services
patrol which was dropped behind enemy lines to disrupt the German
Army as it advanced on the Normandy beaches * Wigan Observer *
Details one of the SAS's most daring missions and the Northern
Irish men who played a key role ... Decades later the story of
their feats has finally been put to paper thanks to the painstaking
research of former war reporter Lewis ... What particularly
resonates with the release of SAS Band of Brothers is the
way Lewis has been able to work so closely with the families of
many of the key protagonists * Belfast Telegraph *
