Bücher von Edward L. Bimberg

This volume provides a military history of the Moroccan Guoms, the knife-wielding irregular troops who distinguished themselves whilst fighting under French command in Tunisia, Italy, France and Germany during World War II. It follows them from their North African mountains into war.

This is the story of the early struggles of an ill-equipped French force, among the first to pledge its loyalty to General de Gaulle. It fought a lonely, almost secret war against the numerically superior Italian troops deep in the wildest parts of the Sahara.
