19410010319Cairo Egypt Killay Swansea Wales. Fair with no dust jacket. 1941. Softcover. On offer is a wonderful personal record of a Royal Air Force officer serving in North Africa during the first half of WWII. This diary belonged to Pilot Officer W. K. Walker RAF.

The diary covers the year 1941 with most of the entries in the first 8 months of the year. Walker was commissioned as a Pilot Officer the lowest commissioned rank in the Royal Air Force. When his diary begins he is beginning a leave. A day later Jan 2 he receives a wire informing him that his father had passed away. After the funeral he returns to his base and a week later received instructions to prepare to ship out overseas. His destination is Cairo home to the Royal Air Forces Middle East Command. As he waits to begin his journey he reports that his hometown Swansea was the target of a bad air raid. Jan 17. He receives 7 days leave to return home. He returns from leave on Jan 26 kitted out for the middle east Jan 27. Granted another 13 day leave he returns home again. While home he records another bad air raid bombs very close on Feb 19. He returns to base to complete final preparations and once again receives a pass to go home. While home Swansea again is heavily bombed. He notes that a friend of his was injured in the bombing. On March 20 Walker finally travels to Liverpool where he boards the Viceroy of India bound for Cairo by way of Capetown South Africa. On May 6 he arrives in Port Said Egypt.

Surprisingly Scarce in this edition which was <br/><br/>Dust jacket price is 500 rupees. DJ blurbs by V. S. Pritchett Elizabeth Hardwick Michael Ratcliffe. "Printed by PUSP Print Services" on last page. A companion volume to his AMONG THE BELIEVERS: this is his observations on his travels in Indonesia Iran Pakistan and Malaysia. "Beyond Belief is interesting and often perceptive and offers real insights into the lives and experiences of these people. As narrative it is an impressive achievement--but it is not only narrative. Despite Naipaul's surprising disclaimer that this is not "a book of opinion" or of "conclusions" it is very much both. Opinion and conclusion are reflected in the selection of stories and in their structure and tone; they are also evident in the editorial commentary scattered throughout. Naipaul repeatedly characterizes Islam as a fanatic missionary religion dedicated to erasing the histories and native cultures of convert peoples. Although all missionary religions are to some extent guilty of this Islam in his view is more single-minded and systematic in its effacement of the past - Choice Review".
