Alistair McLean's South by Java Head is a novel (fiction) but a superbly told tale about the evacuation from Singapore. In his early years, when he had his game on, McLean was terrific. Historical fiction can do a great job of putting a reader in a place and time.


I've actually deliberately avoided McLean's later works.

Ulysses was a fantastic book that captured the tone of what the Artic theatre would have been like, and Where Eagles Dare is one of those rare cases of the film adding to an already excellent book.

Is that the movie with Richard Burton and Rowdy Yates?
