| Quartered Safe Out Here: A Harrowing Tale of World War II
| | George MacDonald Fraser
| George MacDonald Fraser—beloved for his series of Flashman
historical novels—offers an action-packed memoir of his experiences in
Burma during World War II. Fraser was only 19 when he arrived there in
the war's final year, and he offers a first-hand glimpse at the
camaraderie, danger, and satisfactions of service. A substantial
Epilogue, occasioned by the 50th anniversary of VJ-Day in 1995, adds
poignancy to a volume that eminent military historian John Keegan
described as "one of the great personal memoirs of the Second World
War."
