Band of Brothers just happens to be my most favourite TV series ever. So when I saw a non fiction book by Damien Lewis about a parachute squad referred to as Band of Brothers I had to buy the book. Turns out this Damien Lewis is not the actor who starred in the series but a military historian, one who specialises in world war two to boot. The soldiers Lewis writes about are also English not American and are captured, tortured and, in some cases, murdered.
