Ian Pegg Author

Ian Pegg has a lifelong passion for the history of war and conflict. This started from a young age, talking to his grandfather who served in the Royal Engineers and suffered injury at Dunkirk in 1940.    Bringing his professional writing career into his authorship has allowed him to use these skills to undertake extensive research from the National Archive, Imperial War Museum, Royal Military Chaplains Museum and unpublished memoirs and diaries of Chaplains who served in World War 2. These sources have allowed Ian to expand his research into the role of Army Chaplains in War and their role beyond religion, to understand what sort of man goes to war.   Encouraged by eminent authors James Holland, Peter Caddick Adams, Ted Barris and Prit Buttar amongst many, to tell the stories of these men across the whole journey of World War 2 this is his debut non-fiction book.
