THE FALKLANDS WAR, which accompanies Channel Four's major series on the war, tells the extraordinary story of what has been called "Britain's last imperial fandango". Ten years on, politicians, generals and ordinary soldiers from both sides are able to speak out frankly for the first time. In doing so they make some startling revelations about the misunderstandings between Britain and Argentina which led to the conflict, and the extraordinary difficulties the British faced fighting so far from home. Strikingly illustrated, this authoritative account shows how a minor dispute over a sparsely populated group of islands blew up into an international crisis in which more than 1,000 men died.
