Notable British Writer Eric Linklater Autobiography Reviewed
The Man on My Back by Eric Linklater, a vivid life story from Orkney to Scotland, India, and the Royal Engineers, shows a gifted raconteur who engages readers though he withholds none of his own modesty. William Blake's The Copperheads, a Civil War novel from a fifth column angle, follows four central figures in a web of treason and romance amid battles and riots. Gregor Ziemer’s Education for Death, a stark Nazi youth study in Oxford, offers a calm clinical eyewitness account of Hitler youth indoctrination, sterilization, and the regime’s plan to mold a generation for death.
