    Default Selous Scouts

    That Amazon.com listing is the book. It can sometimes be found on Ebay in paperback. It was published in 1982, and written by Peter Stiff as told to him by LtCol Reid-Daly. Pamwe Chete: The Legend of the Selous Scouts was published in 1999 and appears to have been written solely by Reid-Daly. I have not read that book, but it appears I need to pick it up.

    My copy is with someone else as well, who is enjoying the tales of audacity demonstrated by that band of warrios.

    EDITED TO ADD: There is a text within the SWJ Reference Library that I just pulled up, concerning pseudo operations. I'm halfway through it and the issues for consideration are on point, making it a required read for anyone exploring the possibilities of pseudo ops to "mirror" insurgents/terrorists, or just gain other TTPs in dealing with detained/captured individuals.
