Paperback. Condizione: New. This biography of Jack Maurice Nissenthall, written by his daughter, Linda Nissen Samuels, draws heavily on Jack's own writings: The Wizard War, an unpublished autobiographical account of his part in the development of radar before and during WW2 and its impact on the eventual outcome, and original letters and photos. Through them, we hear this Unsung War Hero telling his own story in his own words.At the heart of Jack's story is the written order that he accepted, as the anonymous "RDF (Range and Direction Finding, an early term for radar) expert" - that he was to be "adequately protected" by bodyguards from the South Saskatchewan Regiment because "under no circumstances" was he to be allowed to fall into enemy hands. Effectively, this meant that ten Canadian soldiers specifically tasked to assist him, were also, in Jack's own words, "a sort of negative safeguard", "my execution squad". That he was not captured and did indeed survive was due partly to his physical fitness and the "cheerful and resourceful courage that shows in this book." (From the Foreword to Jack's own manuscript- written by Prof R. V. Jones, Britain's Assistant Director of Air Intelligence in World War II.)This present book answers the question: what made him do it?It also recounts many episodes which demonstrate how Jack's whole life exemplifies dictionary definitions of a hero - as a person of high moral integrity, resourceful, passionate and patient, energetic, courageous, confident and caring who willingly takes risks and makes sacrifices for others. But Jack is not a common-or-garden, rough, tough hero. You'll be charmed to read how, as a love-struck twenty-something, he wears his heart on his sleeve, writing to his girlfriend Dally about their first kiss.Why is it then, that this exceptional person was undervalued and overlooked by the powers-that-be at the end of World War II? And why was he not decorated for bravery? Indeed, an article proposes that he is "The VC that never was."This book gives an insight into why, nearly eighty years later, Jack Nissenthall's extraordinary war service is still largely unknown and unsung (except in Canada), and why there are still so many unanswered questions about it.But in the end, readers will surely acknowledge this hero's modest and cheerful embodiment of integrity - and want to sing his well-deserved praises.…

paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
