Hardback. Zustand: New. Dear Mona, Letters from a Conscientious Objector are the words of 20 year old working class Geordie Len Jones to his mentor and would-be partner Mona Lovell. They worked in the Newcastle library service, and Mona, a Quaker was educating Len in the arts and in social equality. Their correspondence begin when Len, as a conscientious objector, was forced to work in forestry during the war. With other like-minded people - including future MP Bill Hamilton, and the poet James Kirkup - Len had many opportunities to develop his thinking and his character. These letters are a fascinating and inadvertently detailed first-hand account of how Len changed. Eventually he decided on a more active role in the fight against fascism and became a non-arms bearing medic. He was parachuted into northern Europe and took part in the Ardennes and German campaigns, and in the opening of the Dachau concentration camp. After the war he was posted to Palestine, where he became involved in the issues around the establishment of Israel. Here, much to Mona's dismay, he met and married Judith Grossman, with whom he returned to Britain to set up as an artist.In Dear Mona Jones records in his own words the story of the Home Front, of the European campaign following D Day and of the tensions in Palestine, still present today. It is a remarkable, immediate account: personal, intimate and yet also history, played out before his eyes. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - These are the letters of 20 year old Len Jones to his mentor and would-be partner Mona Lovell. The letters begin with his principled stand as a conscientious objector and describe life in forestry and other occupations during the Second World War. Like a number of COs, he eventually took a more active role in the fight against fascism by becoming a non-arms bearing medic. It was in Haifa that, much to Mona's dismay, he met and married Judith Grossman, with whom he returned to Britain to set up as an artist, now known as Jonah Jones. Jones records in his own words not just the story of his early life as it happened, as he changed from gauche Len Jones to artist Jonah Jones, but also the story of the Home Front, of conscientious objection, and of the tensions in Palestine, which resonate still today. …
