Can one person really make a difference in a dark world? Can a nation be saved from certain judgement through the faithfullness of one person? The bible say’s yes. Not only that but the word also shows us what type of person can persuade God to withold his hand of judgement against a rebelious nation. It takes a hero. Not man’s idea of a hero, but what scriptures describe as a hero of faith. A hero deep within us all to bring us victory in these last days.

The Second World War is famed for being the conflict that changed the face of warfare, and it is the last that changed the face of the world. In addition to remembering those who passed away in those dark days of war, a sincere debt of gratitude is owed to all those now in their twilight years who gave all that they had for King and Country. In this new and revised third edition, with additional material to celebrate the lives of D-Day and Arnhem veterans, Gary Bridson-Daley presents 46 of over 150 interviews he conducted with veterans over recent years, adding to the history books the words and the original poetry of those who fought and supported the war effort to ensure freedom, peace and prosperity for generations to come. From each corner of the British Isles and every armed service, from Dam Buster George 'Johnny' Johnson through to riveter Susan Jones: heroes, all.
