The Road from Mandalay

The Road from Mandalay
by Richard Rhodes James

This is a tale of a life few understand today: the human cost of Empire, where families were torn apart - a father seen once every four years - growing up in the Thirties, a time much talked and written about by those who never knew it; a strange Oxford; the war at its most savage against an enemy like no other. And then communicating to a generation that knew not these things the values we had fought for. It is the story of one who found a faith and who after a life longer than most, believed others should know about it. Over these years the East followed the author until he said goodbye to it in a special way. A tale of struggle, but of much fun and a humour that lights up its pages . You will discover after reading this book that these years have been worth recalling.

Richard, having retired from teaching, lives in Cambridge, UK. Married to Rachel, they have three children and seven grand children. To get a copy of this book either order from your local bookshop or visit the publishers webpage, www.authorhouse.co.uk
