About this product

Product Information

With the sudden Argentine invasion of the remote Falkland Islands on 2 April 1982 the United Kingdom found itself at war. Due to the resolve of a determined Prime Minister and the resourcefulness of the Armed Forces, a Task Force, codenamed Operation CORPORATE, was quickly despatched. Remarkably just over two months later, the Islands were liberated and the invaders defeated. By any standards this was a remarkable feat of all arms cooperation made possible by political resolve, sound planning, strong leadership and the courage and determination of the combatants. Martin Middlebrook, one of the most skilful historians of the 20th Century, has weaved the many strands of this extraordinary military achievement into a fascinating, thorough and highly readable account of the Campaign. For a full understanding of what it took to win this war there will be no better account to read than this. SELLING POINTS: . One of the finest and most authoritative accounts of this memorable campaign . Martin Middlebrook's reputation as a researcher and author is renowned . 30th anniversary of Fauklands conflict . Draws on first hand accounts AUTHOR: Martin Middlebrook has written numerous books on the two World Wars. His First Day on the Somme, along with fourteen other titles is in print. He is a fellow of the Royal Historical Society. ILLUSTRATIONS: 16 pages b/w plates

  • Fantastic myth buster

    A well respected and clinical historian, writing in compelling manner, keeping you gripped, even though you ‘think’ you may know the events. I guarantee you will discover something you did not know, events that may be portrayed as controversial, but are pretty clear cut, and vice versa. Above all, honest and balanced. Please read!

  • The best.

    I've read several books on the Falklands war and can safely say I found this the best. Not being an expert on conflicts, it was easy to follow and impartial.
