General Comments
I got Robin Horsfall's Fighting Scared to read on a long journey and it made the journey even longer.
It was the same as all the other books writen by ex soldiers about the Army/S.A.S., I was expecting more from this book maybe too much, after the first chapter I knew what was going to be like for the rest of the book and I was not far wrong, great bunch of lads, close shaves with the enemy of which the writer was the hero of the hour, how brave he was etc etc.
Good book if you can't sleep as this will put you to sleep.

This guy obviously didn't finish the book or even get to the end of the first chapter. The book came out 2 years after the other books he refers to. Robin Horsfall portrays himself as anything but a hero. His story is an in depth account of his fears.
