The SBS in World War II by Gavin Mortimer
The Special Boat Squadron was Britain's most exclusive Special Forces unit during World War II. Highly trained, and totally secretive, the SBS was established as an entity in its own right in early 1943. With the interviews of the surviving members of the unit, this title gathers the forgotten dramatic exploits of this fighting force.
Gavin Mortimer is the author of Stirling's Men (Weidenfeld & Nicholson, 2004), a ground-breaking history of the early operations of the SAS, The SAS in World War II (Osprey, 2015) and The Daring Dozen (Osprey, 2012), to name just a few of his titles on Special Forces. An award-winning writer whose books have been published on both sides of the Atlantic, Gavin has previously written for The Telegraph, The Sunday Telegraph, The Observer and Esquire magazine.
