‘What did you do in the war, Dad?’ This is a book for sons and fathers everywhere. An enlightening biography which tells of a son’s need to understand the father whose
wartime adventures as a captive in Italy, and his many and varied escapes from the
enemy, both intrigue and inspire him to journey in his father’s footsteps and
retrace the past. Touching and tender - a book to savour.
