The Centurions

Jean Lartéguy

£12.99

When 'The Centurions' was first published in the 1960s, readers were riveted by the thrilling account of soldiers fighting for survival in hostile environments. They were equally transfixed by the chilling moral question the novel posed: how to fight when the 'age of heroics is over.' As relevant today as it was half a century ago, this is a gripping military adventure, an extended symposium on waging war in a new global order, and an essential investigation of the ethics of counterinsurgency.
