Description

Dear Mum and Dad is a collection of letters home from Lieutenant Colonel Dennis Gwynne between 1941 and 1945. Written during his time serving in India with the Gurkhas, these letters offer a unique insight into life in the jungles of Burma and the defence of Imphal in 1944. Gwynne's experiences are marked by danger, discomfort, and monsoon weather, yet he finds solace in thoughts of home and family. His writing conveys his hopes for the future and concerns for those left behind, providing a poignant glimpse into life during this period of World War II. This collection of letters is a powerful tribute to Gwynne's service and a testament to the enduring bonds of family and home.
