Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Paperback. 'Relentless, raw and just impossible to fake. Bram Connolly has survived more in one lifetime than most of us could ever imagine - and takes us right there, with a soldier's honesty and a storyteller's heart.' DANIEL MACPHERSON, award-winning actor and presenterFor more than two decades, Bram Connolly's life was a relentless march through some of the world's most volatile landscapes, brutal conflicts and extreme training. Serving in the Australian Army and the elite Commando Regiment, he took part in dozens of high-risk operations, each marked by close calls and narrow escapes. Many of the dangers he faced were only fully exposed hours, days or even months later.In 100 Ways I Almost Died, readers are thrust into the heart-pounding reality of military life: falling from cliffs, planes and helicopters, dodging RPGs and machine gun fire, battling hypothermia and heat exhaustion, escaping asphyxiation in a snow cave, stepping on an IED, avoiding sniper fire and leading assaults on enemy compounds. But this book is far more than a catalogue of near misses. It's a sharp, often sobering exploration of situational awareness, the unseen hazards that lurk behind every decision and the sheer unpredictability of combat; where even the most prepared soldiers rely, at times, on luck alone. Both a cautionary tale and a tribute to the resilience of those who serve, this account is a rare and gripping insight from Bram into the hidden and the hard-won lessons forged in moments where life hangs in the balance.Includes a foreword by Hugh Riminton. 'A heart-stopping account of training and fighting on the front lines. It's a story about mateship, courage and the high-stakes when things go wrong. This book reads like a thriller that traverses the most dangerous parts of our world. Bram Connolly is the real deal.' TIM AYLIFFE, author of Dark Desert Road'Bram Connolly stands among our best and bravest in the dirty and difficult business of arms.' HUGH RIMINTON, Walkley Award-winning presenter and war correspondent 'Explores the the hard-won lessons forged in moments when life hangs in the balance.' CANBERRA TIMES'Connolly's survival stories are a celebration of risk, adventure and the clarity of life that comes from seeing it almost slip away.' THE NIGHTLY Incredible stories of combat and survival from over twenty years in the Army and Special Forces.
