Been steering clear of comments on this book since I read it Day 1, but this review!
1) Photo of Paddy and “a comrade”. Stanley Moss not even credited?
2) The idea that post-kidnap “the villages would have been attacked anyway. But nobody can ever be sure”. Utter rubbish. Villages were often destroyed, but only in vengeance.
Not the best of reviews by a long chalk. The writer doesn’t seem to have got the point of Paddy . He keeps on taking the wrong end of the stick in my opinion.
