First Edition, SIGNED by both authors

These are two extraordinarily vivid memoirs by two South Africans who served in the Second World War. That six-year-conflict began more than 71 years ago, and the veterans who are still alive today are obviously very senior citizens. Cyril Crompton is 94 and Peter Johnson is 89, but one would not say so, judging by the general style and delivery of their recollections. Both served up north, to use the phrase of the time, and both became prisoners of war, experiencing the associated hardship, brutality and uncertainty, and the fearful excitement of trying to escape.
