The following Story“Valley of the Doves”is a work of fiction but does contain factual places and some actual events.

Some of the people mentioned did exist and were part of these historical events, but other characters are solely from my imagination and any resemblance to real people is purely coincidental.

Any comments made to my fictional characters by these people are purly fictional, and should be treated as so. Details of vehicles, tanks, geography, place names, campaigns of WW2, the battles and the equipment are as close as possible to reality. Apart from AVC1 and the mobile Y service with the 16th/5th Lancers these are fictional.

The battles of Crete and Fondouk are historical fact, as is the discovery of Belsen by Major B. Urquhart. If you have been following the storyline and you wish to know the rest of the story please contact me, a synopsis of the story will appear in the forward page




My Second Novel "The Nightmare Catcher" This is a Murder mystery and is still under construction




I have been advised by a well known local author to stop my novels at chapter four, as there is a risk that they could be plagiarised.
I will continue to add to the children’s short stories as and when. Please do not copy or distribute this work without first gaining the authors permission or use the plot as a basis for your own work.




The children’s stories were written to entertain my Grandson “Rhys Vaughn Morgan” to whom I dedicate these stories. A big thank you to those who helped with the proof reading and editing of my grammar, and for Samantha for bringing that little ray of sunshine called Rhys into all our lives.
