"Sir John Norton-Griffiths was one of a breed of adventurer, pioneer, entrepreneur and soldier whose like is very seldom seen. Having learnt his trade and made his fortune mining the rich seams of south Africa, he turned his expertise to more deadly use in the Great war. He led the gallant miners who burrowed deep under enemy lines with devastating effect.He went on to wreak havoc on the Danube. Always a controversial figure, he died (or was he murdered?) in mysterious circumstances. This is the story of a true maverick who was a formidable force and legend wherever he went."

Robert Paterson
4.0 out of 5 stars An epic book about an epic person
Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2013

If there was a film made of Norton Griffiths, most people would think it far fetched. Bridgland has woven history and biography into a marvellous book.

I bought it to know more about the underground tunnelling war of WWI. NG was the father of this. I discovered a most remarkable man and a wonderful author.

A superb book and story.
