Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Heseltine, Richard. Pippin's progress : a soldier artist's war. Memoirs of a wartime officer in the 3rd Hussars / illustrated by the author. Centuries Assington: Silver Horse Press, 2001. paperback, VG. Very minor shelfwear to edges. Binding strong and tight. Frontispiece b/w photograph. xv, 268pp., colour and b/w illustrations. Contents clean and bright. Richard "Pippin" Heseltine was born in 1914 in Wimbledon, Surrey. Heseltine went to Charterhouse which he left at the age of 16. He spent a year and a half on a farm in Hampshire learning to plough and sow and to build corn ricks and haystacks. His father then bought him a small farm in Newington, near Sittingbourne, North Kent, where he grew apples until 1939. In 1939 he was called up to join his chosen regiment, the 3rd Hussars, where a cousin was already serving. It is then that he got his nickname "Pippin". He stayed with the 3rd Hussars for 6 years, during which he was awarded the Military Cross in 1944. After the war Heseltine farmed in Hampshire for 9 years. In 1955 he took up fruit farming at Willow Tree Farm, Assington, Suffolk, where he died in 2012. Before he joined the army Heseltine was already a talented artist, a talent inherited from his father's family. During World War II Heseltine fought in North Africa, Cyprus and Italy and despite being in the thick of the action, painted and drew the fields, trees and landscapes around him with great accuracy, with the keen eye of a countryman. A number of these sketches and paintings, as well as war scenes sketches, were later used to illustrate his memoirs published in 2001 as Pippin's Progress.
