The Mammoth Book of Heroes

Ed. Jon E. Lewis

£7.99 [  ]

True courage is one of the most highly valued attributes of humanity Gathered together in this volume are over 70 accounts, many of them in the words of those who were there, about men and women who showed real courage, often with their lives on the line No fictional hero can match the true courage of Ernest Shackleton, the bravery of British soldiers at Rorke’s Drift, or the spirit of Annie Sullivan teaching the deaf and blind Helen Keller to speak and read This is an inspiring collection that celebrates the brave of heart through the ages.
