My grandfather's knife : and other stories of war and belongings / Joseph Pearson.

Summary:

With the discipline of a material historian, the empathy of a novelist, and the inquiring mind of a detective, Joseph Pearson investigates five objects. A knife, a diary, a recipe book, a stringed instrument and a cotton pouch. Each has a connection to the Second World War. Each has a story. As is true of the best guides, Pearson transforms his fascination into ours. Pearson was born in Edmonton, AB.
