    Hello everyone! I'm pleased to say that my book Exmouth at War has now been published. I have supplied the following information here for anyone interested in aquiring a copy. Thanks to Exmouth people for helping me find people to interview over the last few months it has proved really useful.

    Imprint: Halsgrove. ISBN 978 0 85704 071 8, hardback, 297x210mm, 160 pages. Published 6th October 2010.

    It is available from any good book store. I hope you enjoy it and i feel sure that more things will come to light about the time during this difficult time.
