I spent many happy holidays on Mersea Island.

I'd love a copy of the book.

Could you post the necessary details so I can get hold of a copy please?

Hi Elaine,

I have a chap who came from Duddenho End, Saffron Walden, so not sure if he will be included? Anyway his name, etc., is:

Second Lieutenant Harry George Denys Winton, 2nd Bn The Suffolk Regt., KIA 3rd May, 1915, in Belgium. He was MID L.G. 22/6/15.

Is the book still available? If so can you give me details? I would be interested to know what details, photos, etc., there are in the book, if any?

Many thanks for the offer.

Best wishes, Robert
