Item description from seller

Mist on the Rice-Fields is John Shipster's account of his wartime service, covering the Burma Campaign of 1943-45 and the Korean War of 1950-51, with a foreword by Fergal Keane. This paperback edition was published by Leo Cooper, an imprint of Pen & Sword Books, with a green cover featuring archive photographs of soldiers and military badges, and priced at £12.95 on the back. The copyright page confirms first publication in 2000, reprinted in this format in 2002. The book contains black and white photographic plates, including images of the author with Japanese veterans, alongside the main text printed on cream paper. The covers show some wear with a scuff to the top edge of the front cover. The spine remains square and legible. Page edges show light toning consistent with age. No other faults are visible in the photographs provided.
