Description:
London: Thames & Hudson, 1972. First Edition. Hardcover. Good/good. wear to tips, corners and edges of book and price-clipped jacket which is sunned and rubbed. War time experiences of a British conscientious objector. From Wikipedia: 'When the Second World War was declared he registered as a conscientious objector (CO), although he came from a long line of soldier ancestors. His father had served in the First World War, from which he returned wounded, suffering from shell shock and silent about his experiences. As Blishen recalled: "He wasn't sympathetic to pacifists. He felt that if he had fought a war, then I ought to fight a war as well."

Description:
London: Thames and Hudson, 1972. 8vo size hardcover with dust jacket; 230 bright, white pages. From jacket: " (A) memoir of (the author's) life as a conscientious objector during the Second World War... While the war thunders about him, he works on the land among strangers of many religious and political complexions. The seasons come and go; the jobs change, but are always hard to learn and boring; there are new companions and old companions - but there is always the land and always there is the weather. This is a work of great beauty, with many remembered moments of joy among the days and months of slogging misery." British author Edward Bishen (1920 - 1996) wrote more than a dozen book during his career. He was also a broadcaster for the BBC. This volume is one of four autobiographies. Light wear to jacket with crease to inside jacket flap and two light marks on bottom of book. Thanks for shopping with us. 100% of your purchase benefits charity and supports literacy and…
