Sobre IBD

Quentin Reynolds gets himself attached to the Dieppe raid (August 19, 1942) and tells us the story. The events of the book span only a few days, but Reynolds takes us on diversions ranging from a long excerpt of one of his Colliers pieces telling us why it’s too early to open a second front to the miracle of plastic surgery.
