` Already loose sand had drifted over the stamped-down square which momentarily had distinguished the subaltern`s grave: no there was no sign, no mark, no indication whatsoever. There had been, here, eleven men. Now ten rode away` In the Mesopotamian desert during World War I, the leader of a British patrol is shot & killed, by an unseen enemy. The officer is the only one who knows their orders & has not told anyone else where they are located. From then on the sergeant has to try to lead the men through a hostile desert landscape which is full of invisible Arab snipers. One by one they are picked off, & the group of diverse characters from different backgrounds has to try to come together in order to survive. The decision making process proves far from easy as tensions & prejudices from their former lives come to the fore. This thrilling tale of suspense goes right to the last page & was a best seller in the 1920s. The novel was filmed twice, by Walter Summers (as Lost Patrol in 1929) & by John Ford (as The Lost Patrol in 1934). ...

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of 50 People Who Buggered Up Britain, Quentin Letts, comes his blistering new book on how Britain`s out-of-touch, illiberal elite fills its boots.`HILARIOUS` Daily Mail` With its vicious takedowns, Quentin Letts` laugh-out-loud Patronising Bastards will have the lefty-elite running scared` The Sun Not since Marie Antoinette said ` Let them eat cake` have the peasants been so revolting. Western capitalism`s elites are bemused: Brexit, Trump, & maybe more eruptions to follow. But their rulers were so good to them! Hillary Clinton called the ingrates `a basket of deplorables`, Bob Geldof flicked them a V sign, Tony Blair thought voters too thick to understand the question. Wigged judges stared down their legalistic noses at a surging, pongy populous. These people who know best, these snooterati with their faux-liberal ways, are the ` Patronising Bastards`. Their downfall is largely of their own making
- their Sybaritic excesses, an obsession with political correctness, the prolonged rape of reason & rite. You`ll find these self-indulgent show-ponys not just in politics & the cloistered old institutions but also in high fashion, football, among the clean-eating foodies & at the Baftas & Oscars, where celebritydom hires PR smoothies to massage reputations & mislead, distort, twist. Political columnist & bestselling author Quentin Letts identifies these condescending creeps & their networks, their methods & their dubious morals. Letts kebabs them like mutton. It`s baaaahd. It`s juicy. Richard Branson, Emma Thompson, Shami Chakrabarti, Jean-Claude Juncker & any head waiter who calls you `young man`
- this one`s for you!
