Description

Ordinary? Or Not! is a personal account of one man's life, from childhood to his death at 93. Recorded by his son in his final years, this memoir offers a unique insight into the experiences of ordinary people during times of war and hardship. The author's father was killed in action at the age of 12, an event that shaped his early life and led him to leave school and support his family. He later joined the Army, serving in India, China, and Malta before being captured by the Japanese in Singapore during World War II. Despite three and a half years of brutal treatment, he survived and returned home to rebuild his life. This book is a testament to the resilience of ordinary people who have faced extraordinary circumstances.
