Product Description

On 28 May 1982, the 2nd Battalion, the Parachute Regiment went into retake the settlement of Goose Green on East Falkl&, where more than 1, 000 Argentine soldiers were holding 119 Falkland Islanders
- men, women, children & one baby
- in squalid conditions.

Forty years on, Goose Green is still the biggest & bloodiest battle the British Army has fought in modern times. This book is the living narrative of the battle told by the very men who fought it; not just the soldiers of 2 Para, but also the SAS, the Royal Navy & Merchant Navy, & others, in more than a hundred exclusive & untold personal accounts.

Goose Green is a book that goes beyond the official histories & the many memoirs to bring to life the first &, as it turned out, the decisive battle of this country's outstanding campaign to retake the Falkland Islands from a foreign invader.
