The Last Survivors of the Great Wa. Norman Collins aged one hundred. It was not just the clarity of Norman’s recall that made the prospect of a book so exciting
The Last Survivors of the Great War. Prisoners of the Kaiser. With most interviewees, contact is sadly fleeting and usually finishes after the broadcast of the programme, but I found Norman so fascinating that I returned to see him, and a friendship developed. In time, I was very proud to be invited to his 100th birthday in 1997, and very sad, yet honoured, to attend his funeral in February 1998. It was not just the clarity of Norman’s recall that made the prospect of a book so exciting. Many memoirs written by veterans have been remarkable for their detail, as have those ghost-written in recent years by friends and enthusiasts.
