Inspired by the romantic myths of Beau Geste, he found himself in the ranks of one of the worlds greatest - and toughest - fighting forces. He kept a unique diary of the hard living, harsh discipline, and the military tradition of March or Die which he turned into this gripping book. \"Simon Murrays personal account of a gently reared, well-educated British youths coming of age in the French Foreign Legion has the drama, excitement and colour of a good guts-and-glory thriller ...Murray is a talented storyteller, and his fellow legionnaires and their disciplined and proud Corps are vividly portrayed. I was hooked from the first page.\" - Dr Henry Kissinger. \"One of the greatest adventure stories in recent years.\" - Chris Patten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Times Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44944923623477,"sku":"ByrdShop_0812907981","price":60.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780812907988_6f4efc94-3e32-4df6-9df9-74643a8a4cdc.jpg?v=1778843142","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/legionnaire-my-five-years-in-the-french-foreign-legion-9780812907988","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
