Ab Initio: A Memoir of International Relations in War and Peace (A Memoir of International Relations in War & Peace)

John Deverill's remarkable life spans some of the most important events in the twentieth century. This first volume takes us from gripping accounts of seeking and destroying German U-boats in the North Atlantic, through to famous MECAS (Middle East Centre for Arab Studies) in Lebanon, and on to the Red Cross witnessing the plight of Palestinian refugees in the late 1940s.
