Críticas
Searingly honest in his appraisal of what that conflict did to the world, on society and, above all, on himself (DAN SNOW)
Quite simply, it is one of the best first-hand accounts that I have read . This gripping book immediately joins a select band of the best soldiers' stories told from the sharp end (MAIL ON SUNDAY)
Hugely entertaining and often moving . As action-packed as any fiction, and yet this is no novel - Gregg's adventures were real. His is truly an astonishing story (JAMES HOLLAND)
One of the most shocking accounts of warfare you will ever read ... An account of heartache, violence and cunning by a man whose will to survive and unbreakable optimism are a true inspiration (INDEPENDENT)
A thrilling story of a young man in extraordinary circumstances . Rifleman is an outstanding book that deserves to become a classic (LLOYD CLARK)
Fascinating . a gut-wrenching read (SUN)
Evocative, detailed and unsentimental - gets us wonderfully close-up (DAVID KYNASTON)
His coldly factual account of the torments of its burned-to-death victims exceeds in power even Kurt Vonnegut's famous fictional account, Slaughterhouse Five ... Warrior Gregg has seen and experienced the stuff of nightmares, but remains a chirpy optimist in his 90s (DAILY MIRROR)
Intensely moving (MAIL ON SUNDAY)
It reads like the best fiction (SAGA)
Reseña del editor
'Victor Gregg is the most remarkable spokesman for the war generation' Dan Snow
'A classic' Mail on Sunday
'Astonishing' James Holland
Born in 1919, Victor Gregg enlisted in the Rifle Brigade aged just eighteen and began a life of adventure. A soldier throughout the Second World War, he saw action across North Africa, was a driver for the Long Range Desert group and fought at the battle of Alamein. Taken into captivity at the Battle of Arnhem in 1944, he was sentenced to death for sabotaging a Dresden factory; he escaped only when the Allies' infamous air raid blew apart his prison and very soon encountered the advancing Red Army. Revised and expanded with exclusive new material in time for Gregg's 100th birthday, Rifleman is the extraordinary story of an independent-minded and quick-witted survivor.
