“This is a very entertaining book about a part of WWII that is seldom reported and a beautiful area of the British Isles that is sadly neglected as a setting for stories. Brayton has brought them together in a confident, competent, and most entertaining manner.”

Waging Heavy Peace

Blue Rider Press
512 pages
$30


“Terrific: modest, honest, funny and frequently moving…Waging Heavy Peace takes the form of a diary, a life-in-the-day structure that gives Mr. Young room to maneuver, as he takes us on a wander round his memory palace…In many ways, the closest antecedent to Waging Heavy Peace may be Laurence Sterne’s 1760 masterpiece, Tristram Shandy…Elegance itself.”

Wesley Stace, Wall Street Journal
