About this product
Product Information
They were British and Australia soldiers, a collection of ex-public schoolboys, businessmen, farmhands and students. Together they formed one of the most intrepid commando units of the war, and in 1943 inflicted a crippling blow on the mighty Japanese Empire. Gavin Mortimer has scoured British and Australian archives to reveal the incredible story of the origins and operations of as wartime Special Forces unit whose courage, endurance and innovation remain unparalleled. It is a tale infused with valour and triumph, but also brutality and tragedy. Fully illustrated with photographs, many of which have never been published before, Z Special Unit is a testament to the bravery of Allied commandos who fought to turn the tide of war. Book jacket.
