Publisher's Summary
Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Where Have All the Bullets Gone?, written and read by Spike Milligan.
Back to those haunting days in Italy in 1944, at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, with lava running in great red rivulets down the slope towards us, and Jock taking a drag on his cigarette and saying, "I think we've got grounds for a rent rebate."
The fifth volume of Spike Milligan's unsurpassed account of life as a bombardier in World War Two sees our hero dispatched from the front line to a psychiatric hospital and from there to a rehabilitation camp. Considered loony (and "unfit to be killed in combat by either side"), he becomes embroiled in his own private battle with melancholy.
But it is music, wit and a little help from his friends - including one Gunner Harry Secombe - that help carry him through to his first stage appearances....

Disappointing
I love Spike Milligan . I love everything about him , and his eccentric brand of humour
I've read all his war memoirs collection , and this story is as good and funny as the others . .
The performance by Spike in this Book is sad .
It was obviously narrated later in his life , when spikes advancing years had taken its toll .
It's hard to listen too .
But , It's Spike and because of that , it deserves its place .
perhaps it would be easier to listen to read by someone else , perhaps Stephen Fry would suit Spikes style
