Format:Hardcover
Forgotten Voices of the Victoria Cross by Roderick Bailey, is one of the finest books
about Victoria Cross recipients published in the last five years.
Based on interviews held at the Imperial War Museum, some sixty-odd recipients are
dealt with in either eye-witness accounts of the VC deed, accounts by the recipients themselves,
or by men who knew the recipient.
The period covered dates from the First World War up to the Korean War, and the illustrations are
excellent.
As a researcher who has been interested in the Victoria Cross for well over thirty years,I
strongly recommend this book to all - even those with just a passing interest.
for me, it was a great revelation of 'the man behind the medal.'
Roderick Bailey has done an excellent job, and after reading the book, I felt very humbled
by what I had read.
Highly recommended.

Husband has had his nose in the book since he was given it. Clearly of great interest to those curious about the Victoria Cross recipients.

As this is a christmas present for me I have not been allowed to look at it yet! I have read others in the series and I would expect this to be of the same informative standard. The item arrived on time and well packed
Listmania!
