Blood and Sand by Frank Gardner

Presents the story of a man who was left for dead but - and against all odds - survived. This book offers an account of survival, of over-coming adversity and a determination to carry on. It also aims to reveal a deep understanding of the Islamic world, and provides an analysis of the 'War on Terror' and what it means in these uncertain times.
