Description
A raw and visceral account of life as a soldier in Northern Ireland during the 1970s. CONTACT is a powerful portrayal of the human cost of war, revealing the scars that affect generations on all sides of conflict. The author's two tours with Britain's elite Parachute Regiment are described with unflinching honesty, taking readers into the private world of soldiers operating under extreme stress and living each day with their senses on high alert. This is a story of heartache, courage and hope for peace, one that has resonated with readers for decades. First published in 1983, CONTACT remains a timely and thought-provoking read, its relevance unchanged despite the passing of time.
