Unsung Heroes - Erik Durschmied - Hardcover

Here are instances of heroic deeds with no immediate witness, or exploits hidden from the public because the truth was politically inconvenient, such as the Scholls' attempt in 1943 to raise their nation's consciousness, suppressed by Hitler's propaganda machine. The Canadian nuclear physicist Dr. Louis Slotin's heroism was not revealed to the public - in 1946 'the bomb' was supposed to be fail-safe. A US pilot held out against impossible odds in a clapped-out aircraft in 1941, and a British battalion against an entire army in Korea in 1951. And, in 1916, a sergeant took an 'impregnable fortress' single-handedly.Durschmied, Erik is the author of 'Unsung Heroes - Erik Durschmied - Hardcover' with ISBN 9781843952152 and ISBN 1843952157.
