Report on Experience: A Memoir of the Allies' War

by John Mulgan 

Report on Experience is a compelling memoir written by a quietly heroic author. This brilliantly written work provides insight both into the mind of the author and the prevailing attitudes of wartime Britain and Europe. Mulgan traces the Allies path to World War II and the widespread reluctance of the population to accept the reality of hostilities. A determined man, he was appalled first by the inaction of his peers and superiors, then by the weak and unrealistic reactions to aggression. This new edition includes an introduction by M.R.D. Foot, a foreword by Mulgan s son, Richard, and materials censored in the original edition.
