The Last Enemy rapidly acquired the aura of a book that says something vital, whose importance goes beyond what it literally describes
Sebastian Faulks
This slim volume of Hillary's seems to have a weight which makes it sink into the depths of one's memory, while tons of printed bulk drift as flotsom on its surface
Arthur Koestler
One of the classic books of World War Two
Philip French, London Review of Books
Rivetingly well told...It will still speak to anyone who cares for the romance and tragedy of a lost hero.
Godfrey Smith, Sunday Times
Elegantly affecting memoir
David Horspool, The Times
He gives you an angle on the war - the pilot's view, before it hardened into mythology, something you won't get anywhere else.
William Leith, Scotsman
Immerse yourself in this extraordinary account of Richard Hillary's experiences... A lost hero whose story has inspired many
Charlotte Vowden, Daily Express
