Mini Story:
A gripping true tale of wartime bravery, None But the Brave tells the story of Leif “Shetlands” Larsen, one of Norway’s most decorated heroes during World War II. From smuggling agents to dodging enemy patrols across treacherous waters, Larsen’s daring missions under the Shetland Bus operation captured the spirit of resistance. Originally published in Norway and translated into English in 1955, this is a compelling tribute to one man’s incredible courage and resilience.
