Many media outlets have generously commented on my books.

​

The New York Times carried a remarkable book review and hailed it as a ‘Rattling Good Memoir!’ They stated that the author has learned a thing or two about telling a tale.

 

Several British national newspapers, including the Daily Mirror and the People, also provided double-page feature articles with photographs.

​

The Guernsey Press and the Jersey Evening Post published a delightful and compact two-page article, it completed with some photos.   

 

I have been frequently interviewed on BBC Television and Radio. and also by Radio Europe Talk.

Some Reader Comments

 

'I got your book from Amazon and wanted to let you know how very much I was moved by it. I have to say I was so fascinated by your story and your wonderful family. What a great legacy! I think your book should be on the curriculum in each school. I have been reading excerpts to our older grandchildren and seeing our 7 and 4-year-olds, it really brings home how young you were to overcome such adversity.  I will ensure they will not forget the people of Guernsey and Jersey so wonderfully honoured by your words.'

'Congratulations on your book, which arrived on Thursday and which I have now read and thoroughly enjoyed. I read and tried to visualise all the places and people you described so well. My daughter also bought the book at Manchester airport, en route to a week's holiday in Crete.'

'I have started to read your book, I must repeat myself by saying that you are a wonderful storyteller, your language style is poetic, mighty, powerful, very impressive. It's a great joy, sometimes fun.  It's always very interesting to read it! Thank you so much.'

'I have just finished reading your excellent book, and I really enjoyed reading it. You certainly had wonderful parents. We had little or no knowledge of what happened in the Channel Islands during the war. Well done on a great piece of work.'

'I feel I know you through your wonderful prose and words in your amazing book 'The Day The Nazis Came'. I am sitting in my garden in Wellington, New Zealand. I am living every word. I can hear you speaking; I have been with you every day on your journey – I felt and sensed your pain, happiness and sorrow. For me, I have laughed, cried, but always in admiration for you and all the good people of the Channel Islands who entered those dark days many years ago. It has simply been a privilege to read and be part of the journey – something I will never forget.'
