Cloth. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardcover. First Edition. White Knees Brown Knees. Suez Canal Zone 1951-1954. The Forgotten Years. Signed by the author with a message to previous owner. Introductions by Sir Jock Kennedy and Acker Bilk. When Douglas Findlay signed on for a three-year stint in the service of King and Country, he had visions of being stationed at Kinross near his Edinburgh home and dazzling the city's girls as one of the Brycream boys. The Ministry of Defence had other ideas.
