The death has been announced of one of my favourite authors. Leon Uris born in August 1924 has gone to the great publishing house in the sky. One of his early novels "Battle Cry" were based on his experiences as a marine in WW2. Later works include "Exodus"; "The Angry Hills" and "Trinity" among many others. Many of his books were made into marvellous films. Who can forget "Exodus" with its great thundering theme tune?
Semper Fi.
