Autorenporträt

Doreen Priddey (nee Williamson) is Walter's granddaughter. She first read Walter's diary in 1995, regrettably after her 'Grandpop' and her father had passed away, and was enthralled. As a result she decided to compile his writing for publication. Doreen has had a career in entertainment and lives in Anglesey.Walter Williamson was twenty-eight years old when he was called to war with the 6th Battalion Cheshire Regiment in 1916. In doing so, he left his wife Amelia and his two-year-old son, 'Little Jimmy', back in England. His diary and letters tell the story of his wartime experience. Walter died in 1957 at the age of fifty-nine.
