Customer Reviews

You come away feeling you knew these people.

This is an autobiography. The author brings the characters alive. You feel you're there with them living through the times and the blitz. Since my experience was through the audiobook, I can say Michael Jayston's narration is superb. With an audiobook, the skill of the reader is every bit as important as the skill of the author. This is a perfect match of both.
