From the Publisher
History’s overriding view of the 1942 Dieppe raid is that of a catastrophe, with thousands of Canadian and British troops killed or captured. Often overlooked is No. 4 Commando’s successful mission to disable the heavy German guns that threatened the supporting ships at sea. No. 4 Commando’s training and preparation for their part in the raid was an excellent example of operational planning, and its leadership was superb. Quite apart from this first use of Commandos, the raid was also the first instance in which U.S. troops fired shots at their European enemy. Drawing on official records as well as interviews with surviving members of the No. 4 Commando, historian William Fowler has pieced together a stirring account of one of the seminal raids of the Second World War.
