Description:

Simon Weston's life as a young Welsh guardsman was blown apart when Argentinian planes bombed the Sir Galahad during the Falklands conflict. After more than 70 operations to repair his damaged face and body, this autobiography provides insight into the events that have shaped his life.

Synopsis:

The Falklands hero continues his bestselling inspirational story. Simon Weston was horrifically burnt in the Falklands conflict of 1982. He has since rebuilt his life to become a true hero for our times and he brings his astonishing story up to date in the pages of this new autobiography. Now happily married with three young children, he campaigns tirelessly for charities - he has jumped with the Red Devils and run the New York marathon - to create a better future for young people and veterans alike. But his road to recovery has certainly not been without its darker moments. This book sees him lay his Falklands ghosts to rest: in a final, moving return to the islands, he bids a last goodbye to the old self he left behind.
