BEHIND ENEMY LINES
The Special Forces Patrol Who Changed the Course of WWII.
This is the gripping true story of one special forces patrol and how their heroic missions changes the course of WWII. The action is relentless, ranging from the sub-blasted wastes of the 1940s Sahara to the wild and rain-lashed killing fields of the then Yugoslavia in 1945. Serving with the Long Range Desert Group, the SAS and the SOE – Churchill’s Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare – these men take the fight to the enemy by jeep, boat and warplane in the most daring of ways.
Based upon the unpublished manuscripts written by Gibson, this book reveals incredible wartime exploits, which were only ever intended for his family. When Gibson’s son reached out to the author, Damien Lewis recognised a unique and powerful piece of untold WWII history. Behind Enemy Lines is the result – a fabulous tale of true grit, duty and undying brotherhood, laced with humility and humour, told by one of the bestselling military historians of our time.

R eplete with surprise, shock, action, heroic endeavour and glory, not to mention subterfuge, treachery and dismay, this is a classic combination of combat writing and breath-taking narrative non-fiction.
In the summer of 1943, the largest invasion fleet ever assembled sailed for fortress Europe, aiming to bulldoze its way onto Nazi shores. At its vanguard went a few hundred elite forces soldiers, the Royal Navy warship carrying them bearing the iconic winged dagger emblem on its prow, plus the motto ‘Who Dares Wins’.
If they succeeded, it would mark the turning point in the war. If they failed, the consequences were unthinkable. Against all odds, outnumbered some fifty-to-one, and facing a ferocious series of cliffside defences, they would have to dare all as never before. So begins the incredible true story of the SAS’s mission to liberate Europe.
