CENSORED is a fascinating historical account of action during WW2 as a young British officer travels the world and sends written accounts of his travels and time in action back home to England. This is superb descriptive writing from a mere 21 year old young man. Published by his daughter, Pat's letters describe how he made the most of being in the war, experienced everything he could, and took advantage of the opportunity to travel. In many of the letters it is hard to believe that a war is actually going on, as he describes sumptuous dinners and elaborate parties, frequent dances, classical concerts and operas, and romantic encounters with a rotation of Italian girlfriends. All this is interspersed with minutely detailed live action accounts of the battles he participated in. For example, the major landing at Salerno, Italy, Monte Cassino and the whole Italian campaign, as well as anecdotes of various mishaps and antics that transpired during his travels. This is a must read for every WWII history buff. The events are described through 6 years of letters to his mother in Scotland and from his personal diaries beginning with how the British Army built camps from scratch in England in 1939, trained their troops and received evacuees from Dunkirk. There are letters about being drafted, trained, commissioned as an officer, and finally sent off to fight in 1942. He traveled from Liverpool to Basra via Cape Town, then to Cairo and on to Tunisia for the battle of Enfidaville and finally to Italy where he fought in the Italian Campaign and at the Battle of Salerno. The end of the war saw him running a German POW camp near Venice and playing bridge with the German generals. These letters record every detail of a day in the life of an officer. They offer a rare opportunity to experience this period in history
