A Soldier's Letters             -  One-a-week to his family in London throughout the war years



Ron's War

Edited from a find of approximately 200 letters written by one soldier to his mother and sister during WW2.

They provide a very human account of the thoughts of a young man away from  home for the first time and
missing his mother's cooking.

I would like to return these important historical documents to his family if they can be traced.

The letters formed part of a larger collection of ephemera bought at  auction and I  assert 
the right to reproduce selected excerpts, and hold the copyright in trust for the family.
