Poignant, precise, and with frequent flashes of wit, Donald lucidly recounts his experiences as a member of the Royal Engineers during the devastation of the Second World War. Recalling a journey which would take him through war-torn Europe and deep into the Middle East and Africa, he describes - with unerring accuracy and a sharp sense of humour - the challenges facing him during those difficult years, and his eventual return to England.
