Goodreads asked Derek Nudd:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Derek Nudd Looking through my father's letters home during the Second World War I began to realise what a treasure trove of insight, brilliant writing and caustic comment they were. I first started pulling them together and researching their context as a project for the family but was quickly obvious that we had something of much wider interest here. The rest, as they say, is history.
