Spikes war memoires are brilliant and worth a read. My Grandad was in some of the same areas at roughly the same time and said Spikes descriptions of events were the most accurate he had read.

I was given them for Christmas when I was around 14, I've read them all several times; fantastic books not only because they're genuinely funny but also as you say because they're a fantastic historical account. The sort of books you can just open up and read a few pages of and enjoy.

Puckoon and the Book of Silly Verse are a couple of my favourites.

Brings back memories, in the late 1950s while we were based in Washington DC my father had a UK based colleague record the weekly Goon radio shows onto reel to reel tape and post them to him in the US. I found all those tapes in his attic when we cleared it after he passed away in 2009. One of the last things he said in the hospice was 'in a minute there will be a long scream and then a thud' - reminisicent of the Goon shows.
