1 comments about No Moon Tonight (Australian Large Print).
- Don Charlwood's quiet, masterly storytelling of his experiences as an Australian navigator in RAF Bomber Command dwells less on the archetypal stiff upper lip than on the real fears, worries and triumphs of he and his crew.
Written in a style of self-deprecation and self-analysis, Don bares his soul and leaves the reader with a personal sense of pain when he describes the losses of his fellow airmen, many of them thousands of miles from their homes. Don's sister (perhaps "daughter" would be a better description) volume JOURNEYS INTO NIGHT should be taken in conjunction. Together, they give a powerful insight into the dark days of Bomnber Command, seen through the eyes of men who , whilst describing themselves as "ordinary" were far from so.

1 comments about The Letters of Rachel Henning (Penguin Australian womens library).
- This book starts a little slow, as we are introduced to a rather stuffy young English lady, told through the letters she writes to family members in the mid-1800's. However, as the story unfolds, I found myself increasingly drawn into Rachel's world, and was reluctant to leave it. We follow her voyage from southern England to Australia, where she slowly adapts to and ultimately embraces life on the frontier, minus the many comforts with which she had been raised. We see not only Rachel's transformation, but a fascinating study of life in the Australian outback, and the triumph of hard work in a frontier that was at times quite harsh, yet which ultimately provided a good life. A very good book, particularly when you consider this story is told through a collection of real letters written by a real person. I bought this book used, but it has a permanent place in my library.
