Description
A reissue of Anthony Rhodes's acclaimed 1942 novel detailing his own wartime experience during the evacuation at Dunkirk. It is September 1939. Shortly after World War II is declared, Anthony Rhodes is sent to France, serving with the British Army.
His days are filled with the minutiae and mundanities of army life-friendships, billeting, administration-as the months of the "Phoney War" quickly pass and the conflict seems a distant prospect. It is only in the spring of 1940 that the true situation becomes clear.
The men are ordered to retreat to the coast and the beaches of Dunkirk, where they face a desperate and terrifying wait for evacuation.
