Publisher's Synopsis
Falkland Islanders at War is a sensitive, intimate and accurate record of British people enduring brutal military occupation for the first time in half a century. The author shares with the reader the courage and resilience of the Islanders during the dramatic events of 1982 in the South Atlantic. To paint a fair picture, Graham Bound also tells of those Argentinians who displayed humanity and moral courage and earned the lasting respect of the Islanders. Bound's book conveys clearly the old truth of extreme situations bringing out the best and worse of human characteristics.
