    Obscure history! The 7 man "Greenland Army" of World War 2 v. a German Navy weather station.
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2017*

This is a great story and an easy read. I am glad that David Howarth recorded this story and preserved this part of World War 2 history. It was my good fortune that son chanced upon, began reading it and clued me in. If you are interested in dog sleds, polar bears, isolation, extreme weather, the clash of the good will of men v. duty, and the drive to go on when it seems that all hope is lost, this is the book for you!

    "On, you Huskies!"
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2015*

The Sledge Patrol--a hidden gem--is a special treat for those of us who savor 'real life' hair-raising adventures in inclement climates while nestling in our cozy armchairs.  David Howarth, a talented military historian and a Good Writer (as Charlotte the spider would say), peels the ice layers off a little-known story of mid-war Allied resistance: a small group of Norwegian Arctic-loving dog sledgers who protected vital meteorological stations in Greenland (sending weather forecasts to the Allies) from a German attempt to destroy them.  It's all there--the blizzards, the narrow escapes, the impossible flight to safety, the death that shouldn't have happened.  Howarth gives these part time warriors flesh, blood, and complex interior lives.  Doubtless the results of WWII would have been the same without the patriotic efforts of the Sledge Patrol, but-- this small book boasts a big story.

    A Tour De Force
  

*by A***O on Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2017*

A riveting account of an oft-forgotten segment of the world where both Eskimos and Scandinavians fought the heinous Nazi encroachment into the quiet lives of the people of Greenland.  Well-written like a Tom Clancy novel, but the fear is real.  The stakes and suspense scream like the whistle of a dogsled as it cuts into the mercilessly cold grip of an Arctic night.Visual storytelling at its best.
