This is a relationship I knew little to nothing about. It was incredibly informative and I think this will definitively do well in the historical circles, especially those like me who enjoy Churchill books.

So, in conclusion I’ve decided it would be wrong to even try to categorise Steve Ladd’s memoirs. Rather I’d just like to summarise them. They are an insight into the life of someone who did a job I could never imagine doing, written by “one of the good guys” - a man of wit, compassion, courage, loyalty, sense of duty and patriotism that it would be lovely, but brave, to aspire to. Please do try and get hold of a copy of this book for yourself or anyone you know - reading it is a joyful education in so many ways.

I know very little about the Korean War but that’s not a problem when I have this book in front of me. Gerry Van Tonder's 'Korean War - Imjin River' is a good enough place as any to begin a brain dump on this conflict, and this volume, which runs to 128 pages, Is profusely illustrated with contemporary photos and clear maps.
The specific period covered is April 1951 to July 1953 and includes the Gloucestershire Regiment’s glorious stand on the Imjin River. This is a good summary of events during this conflict and forms part of the Pen & Sword Cold War series covering the years 1945 to 1991. The book benefits from a good index and detailed bibliography and brings the reader right up-to-date with current events in North Korea, South Korea and beyond.
A recommended read, and I shall be looking out for other books in this series.
