Report on Experience, published posthumously in 1947, is one of the most clear-sighted and moving memoirs to merge from the Second World War. From reflections on the New Zealand of his youth, John Mulgan moves on to his experiences of the European war and the British army. Barracks life, the battles of El Alamein, and above all his months fighting with partisans in Axis-occupied Greece, are brought to life in this engaging account."--Back cover.
