Synopsis
First published in 1980 by Presidio Press as a hardbound volume under the title We Led The Way, this is the quality, paperback edition of a classic first-person war story. The legendary William O. Darby and his elite Rangers are part of the lore of the U.S. Army. This is the story of Darby's World War II exploits, told in his own words.
From the moment they hit the beaches in North Africa to their last desperate struggle at Anzio, Darby's Rangers asked only for one thing -- the chance to fight. Experts at amphibious landings, night attacks, and close combat, the Rangers were the spearhead for advancing U.S. forces. And at their helm was William O. Darby, a forceful, charismatic man who inspired, and was inspired by, his troops. Against overwhelming odds in Tunisia, through the concentrated hell at Gela, on to the Final kill at Messina and the Italian mainland, Darby and his Rangers truly led the way. Darby's Rangers is an authentic war story, as vivid as the action itself.
