Description

George MacDonald Fraser's Quartered Safe Out Here is a personal memoir of the Second World War that offers a unique perspective on the final great land campaign of the war.

At the age of 19, the author served with a small group of hard-bitten Cumbrian borderers in the 17th Black Cat Division, who captured a vital strongpoint deep in Japanese territory and held it against counter-attack. The author's experiences during this time are vividly recounted in this memoir.

The book provides a gripping account of life and death in the midst of war, and the author's place within it. With its focus on the human experience, Quartered Safe Out Here is a compelling read for anyone interested in the history of World War II.
