A collection of paintings and pencil sketches by the author while commissioned as official war artist during World War II.
When war broke out in 1939, McIntyre was an artist in London. Little did he imagine that when he joined a small artillery battery of New Zealand expatriates the next five years would take him to Crete, North Africa and Italy, not as a gunner, but as New Zealand's official war artist.
