Falklands War: The Untold Story, made by Yorkshire Television and shown in April 1987, was such a programme. It revealed for the first time to the British public the harsh realities of modern warfare, and aroused nationwide controversy because it also told Argentina¿s story. Hailed as 'the documentary to end all documentaries about the Falklands War' by the British press, it was also described as a hymn against war'.---In their film, Michale Bilton and Peter Kosminsky were constrained by time to using only a small portion of the potent material they had gathered together. Now drawing upon their extensive collection, they have produced Speaking Out: an oral history of the conflict which is every bit as moving and compelling as their visual record.' (Quote from inside front jacket blurb).***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
