Synopsis: a collection of letters written by a Cambridge Don to his former pupils serving in the government, and the Armed Forces during the Second World War. Bearing a pseudonym of "parish magazine", the letters combine a record of the happenings at the University, the events of Cambridge, and succinct and frank observations concerning the political and martial events of the time .
