Chantry Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Adrian Carton de Wiart seems to have lived a rather full life. Served in 6 different wars, wounded 11 times resulting in the loss of an eye and 2 limbs and escaping from a POW camp in Italy during WWII are just some of his exploits Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrian_Carton_de_Wiart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chantry Posted December 11, 2020 Author Share Posted December 11, 2020 Adrian Carton de Wiart wrote a book about his life called 'Happy Odyssey'. I downloaded it to my Kindle. Based on the comments, I'm not sure it is an "true" autobiography, but more a collection of stories about things that happened during his life. I'm looking forward to reading it.
