Description
The Leftovers of War by Roger Farrow is a personal account of life as an ordinary soldier in the Royal Engineers Bomb Disposal Unit during the 1960s. This memoir offers a unique perspective on the disposal of German bombs and mines in the UK, as well as the recovery and dumping of Japanese ordnance in Malaysia. The book provides a candid look at the contrasting experiences of boredom and intense activity that came with this work. Farrow's story is both humorous and poignant, offering a fascinating glimpse into a lesser-known aspect of military history. Through his account, Farrow sheds light on the often-overlooked world of bomb disposal and its impact on those who worked in it.
