More About the Author
Product Description
Book Description
The UK's biggest military author introduces real-life voices from the battlefields of Afghanistan.
Product Description
Spoken from the Front is the story of the Afghan Campaign, told for the first time in the words of the servicemen and women who have been fighting there. With unprecedented access to soldiers of all ranks, as well as pilots, reservists, engineers, medics, Royal Military police, mechanics, cooks and other military personnel, Andy McNab has assembled a portrait of modern conflict like never before.
This is the full experience of our troops on the ground and in the air. The horrors, cruelties, drudgery, excitement and banter of these soldiers' lives combine to form a chronological narrative of all the major events in Helmand during the British Army's time there.
From their action-packed, dramatic, moving and often humorous testimonies in interviews, diaries, letters and emails written to family, friends and loved ones, emerges a 360-degree picture of guerrilla warfare up close and extremely personal. It is as close to the real thing as you can get.

An excellent read. I was lucky enough to meet the author at a H4H evening. Extracts from the book were read by young members of the Armed Forces cadets which proved to be very impactive. This is a book featuring ordinary srvice personnel doing extra-ordinary jobs, recording their every day activities in a down to earth, matter of fact way. I found it compelling and insightful.

Good book tells it as it is from the front. Feels like its spoken from the heart and highlights the physical and emotional journey our troops are going through. An excellent read

I found the book very moving. Real people telling us what is going on. Our troops should be congratulated on their skill and courage. Yet again innocent young men suffer because of old mens follies. When we will ever learn. A must read for all. Hopefully we may learn to build a better future without going to war.
