This is an interesting view of the raid on Dieppe, as it spends---as the title suggests---considerable time looking at the role of 50 American Rangers in that raid. However, the author also does a good job covering the actions of the British and Canadians, from the initial planing to the final outcome and lessons learned---both good and tragic.

It was during this raid that the first three Americans killed in combat in Europe occurred.
