Popski's Private Army
14.99 €
During World War II, Hitler's and Mussolini's soldiers in North Africa and Italy were terrorized by an unusual unit: appearing out of nowhere, the dashing lads fired on the enemy from a dozen positions simultaneously, burning warehouses and airfields, forcing entire garrisons to surrender. This is how the fighters under the command of second-generation Russian emigrant Vladimir "Popski" Pennyakov, who formed his own battalion under the wing of the British Armed Forces to sow fear and despondency behind enemy lines, acted. For the first time published in Russian, Pennyakov's memoirs, "Popski's Private Army," are a cold-blooded account written by an adventurer and a gentleman, where friendship with Senussi Arabs, grueling wanderings in the desert and mountains, mockery of the stupidity of army commanders, valor, and mortal danger become the ingredients of one of the most amazing stories of World War II.
