Join bestselling author Damien Lewis at The Royal Signals Museum for an in-person chat about his new book 'Behind Enemy Lines'
Behind Enemy Lines tells the remarkable true story of Captain Lewis ‘Archie’ Gibson, one of the Second World War’s most daring soldiers.
Working from previously unseen classified material, Gibson’s sketchbooks, wartime reports and his own unpublished firsthand account, bestselling military historian Damien Lewis reveals the remarkable story of the man who became known as the SAS’s “Pirate of the Desert”. Starting in the Long Range Desert Group, Gibson saved the life of SAS founder David Stirling in the desert and later operating behind enemy lines in occupied Yugoslavia, he and his men wreaked havoc on the Nazi war machine.
The story of Captain Lewis ‘Archie’ Gibson is one of true grit, duty and undying brotherhood, laced with humility and humour, told by one of Britain’s bestselling military historians.
