Bombing Raid on River Kwai Eleanor Young
Thu, Sep 28th 2006 at 12:00 am - 2:00 am
The title was 'Bombing Raid on The River Kwai'. It in fact turned out to be a very interesting insight into the familly of Eleanor Young. Her Uncle Jim was a primary school teacher who controlled his class with stories of Wee Dick before he went off to fight in the Second World War. He did in fact take part on raids on the River Kwai but the main talk was about his story telling. When he ended up in Erskine Home Eleanor found his stories written down however there was no final chapter. This she wrote herself. Eventually a publisher was found but unfortunately her Uncle Jim died before he saw the published book.
