Secure TransactionBook Description
While the author's graphic account compares favorably with the very best wartime memoirs, it also has a unique element, namely examples of his outstanding artistic skill. It is truly remarkable that he not only managed to produce so many fine works under combat conditions and that he was able to draw such accurate maps from memory. His sketches and paintings bring a special dimension to this story.
What a privilege it is to feast on the words and images created by this exceptionally brave and talented man.
