Rifleman - New edition

Searingly honest in his appraisal of what that conflict did to the world, on society and, above all, on himself -- DAN SNOW
Quite simply, it is one of the best first-hand accounts that I have read … This gripping book immediately joins a select band of the best soldiers’ stories told from the sharp end * MAIL ON SUNDAY *
Hugely entertaining and often moving … As action-packed as any fiction, and yet this is no novel – Gregg's adventures were real. His is truly an astonishing story -- JAMES HOLLAND
One of the most shocking accounts of warfare you will ever read ... An account of heartache, violence and cunning by a man whose will to survive and unbreakable optimism are a true inspiration * INDEPENDENT *
A thrilling story of a young man in extraordinary circumstances … Rifleman is an outstanding book that deserves to become a classic -- LLOYD CLARK
Fascinating … a gut-wrenching read * SUN *
Evocative, detailed and unsentimental – gets us wonderfully close-up -- DAVID KYNASTON
His coldly factual account of the torments of its burned-to-death victims exceeds in power even Kurt Vonnegut's famous fictional account, Slaughterhouse Five ... Warrior Gregg has seen and experienced the stuff of nightmares, but remains a chirpy optimist in his 90s * DAILY MIRROR *
Intensely moving * MAIL ON SUNDAY *
It reads like the best fiction * SAGA *
Vic’s honesty and warmth shine through this engaging story * CHOICE *
Completely fascinating. This feels like one of the last voices of a vital generation. For the first-hand account of the Dresden fire-bombing alone, this is gripping reading. It has an immediate power throughout that makes war fiction a pale shadow of the real thing -- CONN IGGULDEN
