I am very happy - I got only positive, if not to say enthusiastic feedback. Not only from 'normal' readers but as well from sons of LRDG members and even from LRDG vetrans.

Default Well done Kuno,

I got my copy on Saturday and read it cover to cover.

It is well laid out and very readable. The variety of photos is amazing with some sourced from each of the combatants, and the recent colour pics show the vastness of the desert.

I particularly liked the way it moved between your journeys and the actual events.

Now to rewatch the TV doco

Rob
