Bravest of the Brave

This is the biography of World War II secret agent, Wing Commander "Tommy" Yeo-Thomas. The book is a study of the nature of heroism and the reality of fighting behind enemy lines. Yeo-Thomas's work in Occupied France, where he worked alongside the French Resistance, won him the MC and the George Cross, but he was eventually betrayed. He survived torture - ultimately in Buchenwald - but never revealed his secrets to the Nazis.
