Pressezitat
Palin has packed in an astonishing amount of detective work here, digging through work records, photographs and different people's diaries. Harry might have been what his great nephew calls "a very small fish in a very big war", but with this book he has finally been given a voice. An important historical record and a well-paced story in its own right, Great-Uncle Harry is also much more than that: a tremendous act of love. Guardian
