Description
The Falklands War was one of the most unusual chapters in modern British history. Ten weeks after being deployed 8,000 miles from home, 28,000 soldiers clashed with Argentina over a tiny South American territory.
This account of the conflict is a thoughtful and informed analysis by journalist and military historian Sir Max Hastings and political editor Simon Jenkins. The authors examine how the war was perceived at the time, its impact on British politics, and its lasting legacy.
