Description

Brian Moss's memoirs offer an exceptional account of his experiences during World War II. As a bomb disposal specialist, he faced hazardous conditions and was involved in unexploded ordnance during the London blitz. His role as a frontline sapper took him to North Africa and Sicily before landing on D-Day. Moss's graphic account is comparable to the best wartime memoirs, but it also features his outstanding artistic skill. He produced fine works under combat conditions and was able to draw accurate maps from memory. The sketches and paintings he created bring a unique dimension to this story. This book provides a privilege to read the words and images of an exceptionally brave and talented man who lived to tell his tale despite serious injury.
