About This Item
Stevenage: Spa, 1990. Hardcover. Fair/Good. The author was one of only a very few Jewish soldiers to reach the rank of warrant officer class 1 in the British Army. Here, he describes what it was like to be an armament sergeant-major with REME in the Second World War. Starting with his pre-war days as a TA soldier, we follow him into the regular army on the outbreak of war, and thence through the campaigns in North Africa, Italy and Northern Europe. This is a warm, affectionate memoir of one man's war set in the context of a happy upbringing and background to which, his duty done, he was able to return safely. Contains 279 pages with 16 pages of b&w photos and some maps. Ex-library, front endpaper removed, some library markings. Grey boards in good pictorial dust jacket. Internally, Fair: mostly clean in sound bindings.
