Book First Edition
Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First Edition. From the beleaguered Imphal Valley in the early part of 1944, where he and his squadron were nearer the Japanese front line than ninety per cent of the British Army, Stefan James felt the chances of survival were remote. Every day the Japanese columns were creeping over the mountains; every day the pilots of the battered Hurricanes flew off to strafe the roads and rivers of Burma and return exhausted to the rice field strip and native huts which were their home, to lie awake at night waiting for the strangled cry of death which betrayed a Jap infiltration patrol amongst them. It was in this atmosphere of despair that Stefan James spent his weary leisure hours jotting down the happy memories of a varied and exciting young life, living again the few pre-war years with desperate realism. Illustrated with B/W photos. Previous owners name and date to inside cover. Some foxing to end pages. Some wear and tear to D/J.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
