First Man In: Leading from the Front

Product Information

As a point man in the SBS, Ant was always the first man through the door, the first man into the dark, and the first man in harm’s way.

as the stories themselves were interesting - it was just his constant putting down of other people for their failures whilst not recognising his own that was frustating. Mostly the fun stuff about the SBS, that was really interesting to learn about considering I really don't have a whole lot of knowledge about the Royal Marines. This one seemed like it would be good - Ant looks interesting on the TV and as if he had a story to tell. A lot of celebrity memoirs are so heavily edited to take out all the bad behaviour that they aren't worth reading.Yeah, not exactly your typical "hero" mentality, but admittedly, from a psychological point of view, it's a fascinating glimpse at what makes these kind of operatives tick. I have watched several series of SAS who dares wins on UK TV since I read this book and I would like to revise my opinion. Ok he might have not won every battle but as I am paraphrasing one of his lessons you only fail or lose if you fail to learn from your failure or losses. We work closely with publishers and authors to ensure that we offer the best books on the market for your child.

I am disappointed with Ant Middleton's book with the way it has been written; but certainly not by his achievements. Therefore I was delighted to discover some books aimed at a younger audience due for release this year. It is clear that his relationships with both are difficult and it triggers a desire to join the military and stand on his own feet. The book also talks about him going into the tracking down of children kidnapped and taken abroad by their fathers.

Readers will be surprised and possibly opinions changed once gearing his story from childhood to date. I did find the last few chapters a little less interesting than the others which is why it only gets four stars.
