The book “Family at War” by Brigadier Jolyon Jackson, late Royal Green Jackets, is based on firsthand diaries letters with lots of pictures and is a treasure trove of unseen material. In essence it is about part of his family in WW1 and follows them through the war. The forward is by Richard Holmes. The details are on the attached flyer. HERE
For interest RGJ readers Brig Jolyon suggests the following of options:
1. Order it from a library - in fact order it from as many libraries as you like!
2. It is on sale at Amazon - cover price £25 (type in Jolyon Jackson to book search)
3. He will let you have signed copies available for £22 which includes postage (which is £4.50 - what a rip off)
4. Wait about 2 weeks and there will be a massive pile of remainders in most pound shops. (unsigned copies likely to be at a premium)
