The Last Enemy
"The Last Enemy rapidly acquired the aura of a book that says something vital, whose importance goes beyond what it literally describes" Sebastian Faulks "This slim volume of Hillary's seems to have a weight which makes it sink into the depths of one's memory, while tons of printed bulk drift as flotsom on its surface" -- Arthur Koestler "One of the classic books of World War Two" -- Philip French London Review of Books "Rivetingly well told...It will still speak to anyone who cares for the romance and tragedy of a lost hero." -- Godfrey Smith Sunday Times "Elegantly affecting memoir" -- David Horspool The Times
