Description

Paddy Mayne, Lt Col Blair 'Paddy' Mayne, 1 SAS Regiment, is a biography that sets the record straight on the life of one of the most outstanding special forces leaders of the Second World War.

Hamish Ross's authoritative study follows Mayne from his early days as a solicitor and rugby international to his leadership of the SAS, where he won numerous awards for his bravery and tactical brilliance.

Through a closely researched examination of Mayne's life, using contemporary sources, official war diaries, and personal papers, Ross challenges the myths that have emerged about Mayne's life and reveals a dynamic, yet principled and thoughtful man, committed to the unit's original concepts.
