WWII newspaper reporter, Quentin Reynolds, was invited to come along and observe the Dieppe Raid, August 1942. 6,100 Allied soldiers (90% Canadian) landed on Dieppe beach; just over 50% were killed, wounded, or captured by the German defenders in 9 hours of fighting. A debate arose whether the Dieppe invasion was an outright failure or a qualified success for future operations: Reynolds's work sides with the latter interpretation. . Third Printing. Cloth.
