His recently discovered diary and letters recount in vivid terms
what it was like to be a South African student abroad as war breaks
out. Travel, love and learning jostle with international politics,
militarism and confusion. We follow Terry's travels to Ireland,
Paris and the United States, as well as his romantic adventures. He
debates the role of the US in the War with the journalist, explorer
and broadcaster, Lowell Thomas, who tries unsuccessfully to cure
Terry's endemic Anglophilia. Laurence Wright's introduction
sketches the trajectory of Terry's life, from his upbringing,
education and wartime activities to his religious preoccupations
and his later career as a lecturer in English at Rhodes University.
The volume is fully annotated and illustrated with Terry's own
photographs.
