Robert Widders - Author
I joined the Royal Navy at the age of 15, and subsequently served in all three branches of the armed services; the Royal Navy, the Army, and the Royal Air Force. My first book, A Few Deeds Short of a Hero, chronicles my military misadventures!
The latest book is co-authored with my friend and research colleague, Steve Denton. It's called The Lisbon Maru Massacre: a dramatis personae and, as the title suggests, it presents a biography of every Prisoner of War that sailed on that ill-fated hell ship.
The website LISBON MARU POWs page is a new facility, and over the next few months I'll be adding a range of information and historical documents linked to the Prisoners of War who have been written about in the books.
