Just finished reading the book and enjoyed it immensely. Also picked up the video "Lost in Libya" which complimented the book nicely. My compliments to Kuno and his colleagues for a job well done.

Hi Kuno -

I received mine today. I think US customs held it up a bit (they probably wanted to read through it too).

The book is first rate! The way it's laid out with the photos and the detail information is very well done. I hope you do so well with this one that you end up doing another. I'm going to show my friends & encourage them to get a copy before they're gone.

Regards,
Chuck

I am very happy - I got only positive, if not to say enthusiastic feedback. Not only from 'normal' readers but as well from sons of LRDG members and even from LRDG vetrans.

Default Well done Kuno,

I got my copy on Saturday and read it cover to cover.

It is well laid out and very readable. The variety of photos is amazing with some sourced from each of the combatants, and the recent colour pics show the vastness of the desert.

I particularly liked the way it moved between your journeys and the actual events.

Now to rewatch the TV doco

Rob
