Quite a surprise! SAS Who Dares Wins!
I was given a pile of books and Mars & Minervas by the widow of an old friend of mine. Some where nice and went straight into my bookshelves. However I didn't even look at this book as it's one everyone has already. It is to be fair a 1st Edition. It has sat on a pile I was going to give to charity. I finally bagged them to take in and thought I'd have a quick flick first incase it was damaged.
Well I didn't expect to see this. |

It always pays to have a quick look. I have found books signed by the author and I have two copies of a Great War VC recipient's biography signed by the subject.

Instead of just giving it to charity or trashing it, just give it to me! I won't mind if it's been written in!!!!
Seriously, a real treasure you have here!!! I have my copy of Band of Brothers with several sigs, and also a book on the 29th Division (The Bradford Boys) about Omaha Beach and also the Division history. Terry |

Very nice — a time capsule of those who served. I have a side collection of autographed WW2 books, and it never fails to bring a smile to my face when I pull one off the shelf to read, and see their signatures. Well done!
Best regards, Donovan
