Description

In Best Boots and Battledress, we are given the journey of a young man entering the national service.

Beginning in training camp at Brecon, at officer preparation in Aldershot, and further practice at Brecon again, Kit White recounts his adventures of a young man forced to spend his two years with the Army.

With great bits of humour and wit, White shares his observations of military language; with honest and true patience, he relates to the wins and losses of battle, and the impact wartime has on its people; with accuracy and intellect, he explains the science of strategy and the policies of public schools and military conscription.

Best Boots and Battledress is an engaging and entertaining story of one young man's adventures from homeland to Germany in the late 1950s.
