War on Wheels was about the men and women who mechanised the Army in WW2; MacRoberts Reply is the story of an aircraft, the woman who bought her and the men who flew her; Ordnance explores what some of those people in my first book and others experienced in supplying the Army in WW1. My next, Dunkirk to D Day, looks at the stories of the soldiers who armed an army. They are all people’s stories.
