    Check out his book on being a soldier in the second world war. Tre good. He did some brilliant drawings of things he thought they should have used ( a giant tank for example).

    One of the coolest things about him was that at such an old age he was still a total rebel. He used to really rip the piss out of the people giving him lifetime achievement awards, and I think he was even a little cynical about getting his award from the Queen.
