San Carlos Water, Goose Green, Bluff Cove, Tumbledown.We watched - half incredulous, half in tears - as the Fleet sailed. We read the reporter's despatches. We saw the nightly news. But what was it like to be there? The Falklands campaign was Britain's first modern war. But unlike Beirut or even Vietnam, it was fought 8,000 miles away from view. Only two Flewet Street photographers and two TV teams landed with the Task Force; and a bare handful of their images reached us, blurred by transmission. Yet many thousands of pictures were taken of the war. Most combat units had their own photographers. Some journalists carried cameras. And among the combatants themselves were talented amateur photographers. As they came home, The Sunday Express Magazine sifted their pictures and listened to their stories. The result is this book, the first comprehensive pictorial record of the Falklands War. The war as it really was: beautiful, terrifying, funny, heroic, savage. The war was seen through the eyes of those who fought it. Illustrated throughout. Illustrated laminated boards. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weidenfeld","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67670602154283,"sku":"17817","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/1289\/5019\/files\/war-in-the-falklands-sunday-express-1982-full-colour-photohistory-hardback_17817_main_original.jpg?v=1791253260","url":"https:\/\/militaryhistorybooks.com\/products\/war-in-the-falklands-sunday-express-1982-full-colour-photohistory-hardback","provider":"Military History Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
