Rogue Heroes



Rogue Heroes is a very entertaining account of the founding and early days of Special Air Service (SAS), Britain's elite fighting force much akin to the American Navy Seals. SAS was founded in 1941 at the height of World War II. Thus, Macintyre's book is solely about that period. He tells a masterful account of daring raids behind enemy lines in Europe as well as North Africa. The story reads almost like a military or spy thriller. His story is so vivid and full of details, it is almost as if you are there in the midst of all the action. I would very highly recommend this book to any military history buff.

Disclaimer: I received a free copy of the book from Blogging for Books in exchange for an honest review.
