"Forty men and a girl made up the White Squadron, which battled against the ruthless Arab drug and slave traffickers in the remote areas of the Sahara and Libyan deserts.When she was seventeen years old, the author ran away from school in Rome to join her uncle, her only living relative, who was then a member of the White Squadron. Against his stiff opposition she persuaded the members of the Squadron to allow her to remain; and when her uncle was killed a few months later, she took his place. For the next three and a half years Dorothy Desana lived the tough life of a trooper, using a rifle against the Arabs as effectively as did her comrades." Pp.186, 14 black & white photo illustrations + 1 map. Black cloth, dustwrapper (design by Biro) has minor edge wear. VG/VG.
