5.0 out of 5 stars Popski's Private Army, 16 Nov 2007
By H. Addison "Ithaca" (FLorida Keys, FL, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a beautifully written yarn about a small SAS type unit during the Second World War, based first of all in the Western Desert against Rommel's Axis forces & working with the Long Range Desert Group to sabotage behind the front lines. Later it switches to the Allied Invasion of Italy, where they use the new Jeeps to drive high into the mountains and around the flanks of the German & Italian forces.

Popski was older than most special forces & exceptionally well educated & it comes through in the writing. On one level it is a ripping good yarn, but on a deeper level it is an excellent study of warriors who excell in being fiercely independent, and who fought for their comrades more than their country.
Thoroughly recommended for anyone interested in special forces, WW2, or the Italian campaigns.
