Description

The Falklands hero continues his bestselling inspirational story. Simon Weston was horrifically burnt in the Falklands conflict of 1982. He has since rebuilt his life to become a true hero for our times and he brings his astonishing story up to date in the pages of this new autobiography. This book sees him lay his Falklands ghosts to rest: in a final, moving return to the islands, he bids a last goodbye to the old self he left behind.
