"Explores how Lawrence and the British Military Mission supported unconventional warfare in the Hejaz during the Arab Revolt, with the creation of the Hedgehog force and formation of arnoured car sections and other units, culminating in operations against the Ottoman Turkish army that enabled Field Marshal Allenby to achieve victory in 1918 ... Also examines how Hedgehog has influenced special operations and unconventional warfare since the revolt, including Field Marshal Wavell, the Long Range Desert Group, David Stirling's SAS, and modern British special forces."--Jacket
