Description

Dunkirk: Fight to the Last Man is a gripping account of one of the most pivotal moments in World War II. In May 1940, British soldiers found themselves trapped and defeated by the Nazis at Dunkirk, with no clear way out. The evacuation that followed was a desperate bid for survival, and it was only thanks to the bravery and tenacity of those who stayed behind that it succeeded. The story is told through the eyes of ordinary men who were given an impossible task: to stand and fight to the last man. These brave soldiers launched spectacular attacks against overwhelming odds, buying precious time for the evacuation to take place. Their actions are a testament to the extraordinary personal bravery of individual soldiers, and their sacrifice will never be forgotten. Hugh Sebag-Montefiore's meticulous research brings this story to life, revealing the intricate details of one of history's most remarkable events.
