Written by a Special Forces expert, this is the first time that the story of the raid has been brought to life by specially commissioned artwork, detailed maps and overhead shots. The book also benefits from recently released classified material.

"It is another gripping description of events and thanks to a bevy of photos, many in color, and some superb artwork that includes maps and charts, we get a real idea of what went on during this crisis. Like the other books I've read in this series, it holds your interest and is well researched. It is a book I enjoyed and one that I can easily recommend." --Scott Van Aken, Modeling Madness
