The Pegasus Diaries

The Pegasus diaries is a private account of Major John Howard DSO and his daughter Penny Bates, these two tell you about the ground assault on Pegasus bridge in the second world war. This assault was led by John Howard. John was a major in the Oxford an Bucks Light Infantry regiment.The account also tells you what the regiment and John had done before the assault, this included his family life. Unfortunatly John Howard died in 1999. I thought that this book was very interresting and factual, although you need quite a lot of patience to read it because the text is tiny. But I would give it 8/10.
