A unique, full-colour, action-packed collection of true stories of astounding bravery from the front lines of present and past conflicts fought by the British Armed Forces. 'Real Heroes' combines fast-paced, adrenalin-fuelled stories from the front lines of Afghanistan, World War II and World War I. Blending exciting visual content on soldiers' kit, weaponry and survival tactics with graphic illustrations of real-life stories and first-person accounts of everyday bravery, 'Real Heroes' is a rousing, high-octane celebration of Britain's fighting men and women, as well as the courage of the loved ones who await their return on the home front. 'Real Heroes' is the perfect gift for anyone who wants to support our troops - proceeds from the book will be donated to Help for Heroes, a tremendous charity set up to support the men and women of the British Armed Forces who are wounded in the line of duty. Blisteringly exciting, eye-catching and informative, 'Real Heroes' is a must-read for anyone who wants to learn more about modern warfare, or simply enjoys a fast-paced account of real courage, comradeship and battle.
