SPECWAROPS: A Pictorial History of the SASR
The Military book of its decade, A&NZD's outstanding SpecWarOps was the culmination of more than a decade of painstaking research resulting in almost 400 extraordinary images of the Australian Special Air Service Regiment compiled into a breath taking limited-edition, 100 page hard cover coffee-table book.
SpecWarOps images were drawn from A&NZD's Editor John Hunter Farrell's personal files and from a wide spectrum of other sources ranging from ex-SAS Operators through to amazing pix drawn from the SASR's own photo cell.
When initially published in June 2002, SpecWarOps caused a major controversy with the book mentioned in parliament and cited as lifting the lid on the highly secret world of the Australian SAS for the first time.
The Signed & Numbered Limited Edition run of 100 copies of SpecWarOps sold out very quickly and are now collectors' editions. We have a limited number of Open Edition copies, hurry now before the last of these very rare books are sold!
