Some days Chris Hunter's feels that his whole life has been a war zone - from the reeking drug dens of the south coast of England through the high-threat landscapes of Iraq,Colombia,the Middle East and Afghanistan,and on to the streets of Edinburgh and London . . . In this edgy,fast-paced and incredibly moving account,he chronicles the remarkable journey of a teenager with few hopes and limited prospects who went on to become one of the most accomplished counter-terrorism operators in Britain.With raw intensity,Hunter describes his baptism of fire as a young troop commander in Bosnia,and how,as a bomb-disposal expert in Northern Ireland and Iraq,he witnessed horrendous acts of violence - some of which targeted him and his fellow operators personally.He catapults us into some of the most perilous places on earth as he and his team track down a succession of potent terrorist cells and attempt to disrupt their networks.Whether they are responding to the 2005 London suicide bombings or trying to foil Al Qaeda airline plots,he provides a fascinating,no-holds barred insight into a world that has never been so compellingly documented by an insider.Gritty,action-packed and heart-breaking by turns,this is the portrait of a man prepared to sacrifice everything - including himself - in his pursuit of the world's most sophisticated and unrelenting bombmakers Since April 2013,again in March 2015,and in this year too,the UK Post Office has altered it's Pricing in Proportion template,altering it's prices, weight allowances dimensions and lowered it's qualifying compensation rates too!

[EAN: 9780593060162], Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [SC: 5.81], [PU: Transworld Publishers Ltd, United Kingdom, London], CHRIS HUNTER EXTREME RISK, In this edgy, fast-paced and incredibly moving account, Chris Hunter chronicles the remarkable journey of a teenager with few hopes and limited prospects who went on to become one of the most successful counter-terrorism operators in Britain. Hunter depicts his grueling officer training at Sandhurst, and afterwards as a young troop commander in Bosnia. He describes how, as a bomb disposal operator in Northern Ireland and Iraq, he witnessed horrendous acts of terrorism and recounts the methods he employed to outsmart the terrorists who repeatedly tried to target him. Hunter takes us to some of the most perilous places on earth as he and his team relentlessly attempt to track down the world's leading terrorists and disrupt their networks. A journey that takes us from the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan to the murky back-streets of Colombia and Israel. Whether he's protecting members of the Royal Family, responding to the 2005 London suicide bombings or trying to foil Al Qaeda bomb plots, he provides a fascinating, no-holds-barred insight into a fascinating world that has rarely been documented by somebody on the inside. By turns gritty, absorbing, and heart-breaking, this is the portrait of a man prepared to sacrifice everything for his country, but to concede nothing to the terrorists.
