War Memoirs of a Nonentity: Creating Archives

Title: War Memoirs of a Nonentity: Creating Archives
Description: 2024 thus marks the Liddell Hart Centre for Military Archives 60th anniversary. In those intervening years we have gathered the personal papers of over 800 senior defence personnel, and we thought this birthday year was a great opportunity to showcase just some of the items from the collection. This blog spotlights the Vlieland, Charles Archibald's personal memoirs “DISASTER IN THE FAR EAST 1941-2” from this collection.
