Mer om författaren

Sean Rayment is the defense correspondent for The Telegraph. He is the author of Bomb Hunters, following the tours of duty of bomb disposal teams in Afghanistan. His time spent as a captain in 3 Para, as well as his connections throughout the armed services, mean he can open the doors to these unique veterans from WWII that have been closed to other writers over the years. He will be the first to properly tell their story.
