Jock Lewes: Co-Founder of the SAS

Jock Lewes was the brain behind the formation of the Special Air Service. He was also a radical tactical thinker and brilliant leader and trainer of men. He developed, and gave his name to, the lethally effective Lewes Bomb. This is his biography.
Drawing on unpublished personal journals, this long overdue and bestselling account of Jock Lewes' life, tragically cut short on 31 December 1941 during an SAS deep penetration patrol, makes compelling reading. His exceptional talents found expression in the development of the SAS concept and ethos. Without his and David Stirling's partnership there would have been no Special Air Service; as Stirling later chivalrously admitted, 'Jock Lewes could far more genuinely claim to be the founder of the SAS than I'.
