Press the green link above to read Humphrey’s foreword to a talk which is ‘not a ‘war story’ in any traditional sense’. He quotes from one of Allan’s letters from Cairo:’Twelve months without hearing a shot fired is not altogether glorious. Moreover my spirit remains entirely civilian and strongly anti-militarist’.
He also praises his sister Kate’s many years of work on the preface and on the talk itself.
