Synopsis "Too Thin for a Shroud"
'Haunting... plunges you right at the heart of the action' DAILY MAIL'An important new book' DAILY TELEGRAPH'[A] new light' SPECTATOR'New call to unseal all files' GUARDIANOn 8 June, 1982, four British warships came under an unexpected mass attack at the end of the Falklands War lasting only minutes. Two were sunk, 56 Army and Navy troops died―more than half of them Welsh Guards―and close to 200 men were injured and some 300 veterans suffer from PTSD to this day. It was the most lethal day of combat in the Falklands and since World War II in general. Yet its dramatic history has never been written until now. Based for the first time on a trove of newly-released secret Ministry of Defence documents full of extraordinary detail, Crispin Black grippingly brings to life the day his troops came under attack. With candid personal recollections from his peers, Too Thin for a Shroud is a poignant memoir that casts an entirely new light on Britain's land campaign in the Falklands. On 8 June, days before Britain's attack on Port Stanley, the outcome of the conflict might yet have gone the other way.
