Book, Richard Gavin Gardiner Casey, Personal Experience: 1939-46, 1962
... War Two in the United States, Middle East, and India... War Two in the United States, Middle East, and India World War ...This is not a history of the war years. It is an attempt to record my personal experience of events in three widely separated places in which I served in positions of some authority during the Second World War -- in the United States, the Middle East and India. It has been put together mostly from my personal diaries written day to day as things happened. There is very little in this book for which I do not have personal and detailed record of facts and opinions, put down at the time. I may say that my 1939-46 diaries contain over 700,000 words, so writing this book has been a matter of considerable selection and compression.I have written this story mainly in narrative form, but have introduced a number of selected diary entries from time to time which I think may help to reflect local colour and thinking at the time.I hope that this account of one man’s personal experience may fill in a few gaps in the record.256 p. : ill. ; 23 cm.non-fictionThis is not a history of the war years.
