Harry volunteered for war and was, and had no desire to be a hero, but his daily battle duties entailed remarkable nerve and bravery. Not only did he volunteer for war, he chose to be trained as a 'bomber' and, by so doing, joined the 'suicide club' so termed because of the minimal life expectancy of those in the unit. The task was straightforward - train to hurl grenades at the enemy whilst they shot and threw grenades back at you. This was close-up war, you really could see the whites of your opponent's eyes! Harry survived the war, just; an arm injury ensured that he was in England when it ended. The modest style of his story denotes a man doing his duty for his country without question or complaint; his paintings are full of character but are also basic and naïve, though all the more pertinent for that. Harry's War is destined to be relived by a new generation! Harry's story lay untouched until his death in the 1960s. The original notebooks have been edited by Virginia Mayo, a published author and relative of Harry."; 9.5 X 0.75 X 7.5 inches; 240 pages .
