"The title of the book uses the current expression 'elite' to define the soldier recruited into the United States Special Forces, the British SAS and all those other elitists who choose freely to lead in battle. The 32 pages of colour illustrations show nearly 100 uniformed and battle dressed figures from around the world." --Jacket copy.
