March 1942: British commandos are preparing themselves for an audacious raid on the docks of Saint Nazaire – one of the boldest, most crucial naval operations of the Second World War.
Masterminded by Lieutenant Jack Ward and his highly trained team, it is a mission of daring, skill and extraordinary heroism. Time is desperately short, and the outcome uncertain. Let the battle commence.
A gripping and brilliantly researched account of true-life adventure, Deed of Glory ranks with such World War Two classics as The Cruel Sea and A Bridge Too Far.
