Entry Text: | SPURR, Russell. Let the Tiger Turn Tail: Spurr's War. 203p., illus. Edinburgh: Mainstream, 1992. ISBN: 185158479X.
The rather picaresque adventures of a ne'er-do-well who gravitated from the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders to the Indian Army and thence to RIN Coastal Forces. He found an enjoyable role as an official photographer with the RIN and saw action on the field and in bed as the Japanese-conquered areas were liberated. |
