Description
Stanley Christopherson's wartime diaries offer a unique and extraordinary insight into the Second World War. From the outbreak of war in 1939 to the Allied victory in 1945, Christopherson's regiment, the Sherwood Rangers Yeomanry, played a significant role in some of the war's most pivotal battles, including Tobruk, El Alamein, D-Day, and the crossing of the Rhine. As a junior officer who rose to become the commanding officer of his regiment, Christopherson witnessed both tragedy and triumph firsthand. His diaries provide a detailed and personal account of the war, giving readers a unique perspective on one of the most cataclysmic events in world history. This book is a remarkable record of one man's experience during the Second World War, and is an outstanding contribution to the literature of the period.
