In what may be our last personal account of WWII, 91 year old veteran William D. Rouse has just released his memoir, My Small Part in WWII or How I Discovered St. Tropez Before Brigitte Bardot. Rouse's witty and sometimes darkly perceptive series of snapshots of the life of a sailor on a hospital ship, the U.S. Refuge, both offshore and on, brings an era to life through its dangers, its music, and its people. A vibrant addition to the social history of the period, My Small Part in WWII is both an entertaining, and an enlightening, read.
