description: WWII is on its way to becoming mythology. The danger is that we forget it had a humorous side.Basil Seal has his own ideas about the war and how he can make it work for him."Waugh's great talent is his understanding of human nature and its penchant for the absurd. To this he marries a storyteller's art and a clear-eyed grasp of the realities. Highly recommended." (B-O-T Editorial Review Board)
