by P. R. Hirsh (Author)

One Man Stand is a reader for military buffs that combines discussion of weapons and tactics with exciting historical fiction. P. R. Hirsh explores our fascination with warfare and the military industrial complex.

Stand with the archers at Agincourt, the Patriots at Bunker Hill, and the misbegotten soldiers at Gettysburg. Learn about King Henry the Fifth, Audie Murphy, Chuck Yeager, Lee Archer, and fictional soldiers whose actions reflect the courage and patriotism needed to stare down monstrous odds.

From France in 1945, through the Jungles of Vietnam, and finally on a high-flying adventure to stop a World War One weapon of mass destruction, One Man Stand delivers irony, suspense, and even a bit of amusement amidst the most serious topic of all, the ultimate sacrifice.
