About the works of Robert Lyman
Robert Lyman is a highly acclaimed writer on Military History. He is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society.
'Lyman is good on strategy… A former army officer, he is also astute on what it took to fight the war on the ground, with stretched supply lines and the need for long-range air drops.'
The Sunday Times
'In First Victory he follows his highly-rated book on the Burma campaign, Slim, Master of War, with a probing look at the war out of Cairo... Lyman offers a valuable, provocative assessment of the military operations, challenging Churchill's famous description of North Africa being the first fruit of victory.'
The Oxford Times
