Most Daring Raids in History series.
These books present detailed accounts of military rescue missions: Entebbe, 1976 Uganda; West Africa, 2000 Sierra Leone; Iranian Embassy, 1980 London; and World War II, 1944 France. Military history aficionados will appreciate the well-researched texts. Others may be overwhelmed by technical terms, the unappealing format, and dense, tiny type. Maps, sidebars, and archival photographs add interest. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these The Most Daring Raids in History titles: Entebbe: The Most Daring Raid of Israel's Special Forces, Counterterrorism in West Africa: The Most Dangerous SAS Assault, Rescue at the Iranian Embassy: The Most Daring SAS Raid, and The Most Daring Raid of World War II: D-Day--Pointe-du-Hoc.
