Dr Trevor Davenport is launching his two part book for £55 which will be far more comprehensive than the old original. The print run won’t be that big.
Please contact him at [email protected] to reserve your copy.

Trawling through the 1,000s of photos I took on a visit to the archives last year I found reference to events, that I had never heard of, during the German Occupation of the Channel Islands.
I need to do some more digging to ensure it checks out and isn’t just a product of the scuttlebutt of the time. If it all checks out then there will be an article on my website shortly.

Congratulations to @WeHaveWaysPod @almurray @James1940 on your 1000th episode! Without the podcast it is unlikely I would have written my book or started @IslandsAtWar podcast. Also made some wonderful friends!

Let me recommend the pod @IslandsAtWar, very good.
Busy old day! Recorded the first of two episodes of @IslandsAtWar August 1944 podcast, edited it, wrote a pitch for a history project I have been invited to be involved in, wrote an article, gym, walk, and spent a quality few hours chatting to Sally.
Also received some lovely feedback on my book. 🙏
All in all a cracking day to end a lovely weekend.
