The Long Range Desert Group, by WB Kennedy-Shaw.
Originally published in the '50s, this is a first-hand account of the group's formation and activities.
Always said the real-life derring-do was more interesting than the fictional stuff.
Would also recommend The Filibusters, a record of the commando operations (forget the author), and These Men are Dangerous by ? Harrison, an account of the SAS in Normandy after D-Day.I need valium handy just reading the latter!

Gordon
