À propos du livre
"Sapper Officer" by Murray Wilson spans the years 1921 to 1947, from his birth in England to his arrival in Canada after the war.
Murray gives us a unique view of growing up in England, his school days, family and attending a war shortened program at Cambridge University. From his "call-up" in 1941, he chronicles the ups and downs of training in England,Wales, Scotland and Iceland, as well as his part in the Allied army as it made its way across Europe after D-Day.
The memoirs cover a range of events from humorous, such as officers pushing a horse and carriage uphill, to tragic, such as members of his platoon being killed.
