The story of Anders Lassen is one of the most amazing and heroic of the Second World War - indeed in the history of the British armed services. He was awarded no less than three Military Crosses and the SAS regiment's only Victoria Cross. From the day he stalked and killed a stag armed only with a knife, Lassen had been recognized as quite unique. He took part in a series of extraordinary strikes against the Axis powers in West Africa, Normandy, the Channel Islands, the Aegean and Greece, the Balkans and, finally, in Italy. This classic biography of a remarkable warrior is based on interviews with Lassen's fellow soldiers and a wealth of original research.
