Foreword by HRH The Prince of Wales. The Victoria Cross is Britain's most prestigious military honour, awarded for valour in the presence of the enemy. From the Crimea to Iraq, it has been bestowed only 1,355 times, proving the recipients' bravery beyond all doubt - always facing mortal danger, sometimes a certain death. Since he was a boy the author has been fascinated by the VC and by the daring circumstances in which each medal was won. He has assembled the single largest collection of VCs in the world, each bought specifically because of the holder's particular selfless action and incredible story. Over 140 of these courageous deeds, along with those featured in the landmark television series on Five, are brought to life here, demonstrating the utter self-sacrifice of all the men involved. Including a foreword by HRH The Prince of Wales, the President of the Victoria Cross and George Cross Association, this book is a moving testament to the many brave servicemen who had been awarded the Victoria Cross over the last 150 years. Their stories should not go unheard. Illustrated. 335 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
