Joe Brearley should have spent the Second World-War in the Far East and Singapore but a 'lucky' encounter with a submarine diverted him to the Middle East. Joe recorded in journals, diaries and letters home everything he did in those wartime years apart from the duties that were censored for security. This volume deals with the time he spent as a British RAF officer in Wartime Cairo, the Sudan, and his overland journey to Libya. There are descriptions of some amazing characters, many wonderful places, and journeys by Air, Train, Steamer, and Air Force truck.
Joe Brearley was a lad from Yorkshire who went to Cambridge University followed by a few years in pre-War Germany teaching English to the daughter of a well known family. As War clouds gathered he returned to teaching back in England and subsequent service in the Royal Air Force.
'SEEN FROM THE WINGS' has been complied from his considerable writings, diaries and journals.
