A substantial Epilogue, occasioned by the 50th anniversary of VJ-Day in 1995, adds poignancy to a volume that eminent military historian John Keegan described as "one of the great personal memoirs of the Second World War."Fraser, George MacDonald is the author of 'Quartered Safe Out There A Harrowing Tale of World War II', published 2007 under ISBN 9781602391901 and ISBN 1602391904.
