The French Foreign Legion has established a reputation as the most formidable of military institutions. This book looks at how the Legion selects its recruits, where they come from and why they seek a life of hardship and danger. It analyses the Legion's 'robust' attitude to discipline and questions why desertion is a perennial problem.
