Description
Alan Whicker's remarkable war story is one that he kept hidden for decades, but has now been shared with the world. This book tells the story of his experiences during World War II, from joining the Army Film and Photo Unit as an 18-year-old officer to filming the Allied advance through Italy, meeting military luminaries, and capturing pivotal moments in history. Whicker's unique perspective on the Italian campaign of 1943 and 1944 is brought to life in this beautifully written account. With humour and pathos, he recounts his time on the front line, including the surrender of the SS in Milan. This is a masterful book that offers a fascinating glimpse into one of the 20th century's greatest TV journalists. Published in 2006, Whicker's War is a poignant and powerful memoir that sheds new light on a pivotal moment in history.
