Moorehead, Alan - The Desert War Trilogy (Published in by The Folio Society in 2010. Introduced by the war correspondent and historian Max Hastings. Three volumes, bound in buckram. Screen printed with individual designs by Neil Webb. Set in Plantin. 840 pages in total. Frontispieces. 16 pages of black & white plates per volume. 9.5" x 6.25". Hailed as 'the prince of war correspondents', Alan Moorehead won an enormous, loyal readership in Britain with his despatches from the African front. Writing for ten to twelve hours a day in the lulls between battlefield sorties, he also gathered material for the three books of The Desert War Trilogy, which he published during the war itself. Together they form an electrifying contemporary account of one of the most thrilling and decisive arenas of the Second World War. )
