Colin MacInnes was a sergeant in a Field Security detachment in the
Second World War. In this imaginative record of actual experiences
he describes the progress of his detachment through Holland,
Germany and Belgium in a rapid succession of incidents, full of
humanity, light-heartedness and wit. But it is a great deal more
than just a fascinating account of the war; written in the 1950s,
it was a sufficient distance away for the war experience to have
been digested, yet close enough for it to be fresh. Running through
the seemingly gentle stories he tells are undercurrents of emotion
which are moving, disturbing and deeply poignant.
