Description
Charles Thoroughgood's story is one of tragedy, madness, laughter and terror. As an Assault Commando, he patrols the tension-filled streets in Armagh and Belfast, navigating four months of duty that takes him through times of horror punctuated by periods of boredom. Alan Judd tells his tale with verve, compassion and humour. The result is a novel that blends bitter human incident with army farce, creating an exceptionally fine story that is both entertaining and engrossing. With its unique blend of human drama and military life, this book is a compelling read for anyone interested in the experiences of those who served during this period.
