Eric Newby Biography of Eric Newby :

Eric Newby is best-known for his travel book, A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush. Born near Hammersmith Bridge, London, he attended the illustrious English public school, St. Paul’s. After completing school, he joined Dorland Advertising where he was as he said, “too unimportant to be sacked.” Then he joined as an apprentice aboard the glamorous Finnish windjammer, Moshulu. The famous Moshulu was designed by William Hamilton in 1904 on the River Clyde, Scotland. Currently, it houses a floating restaurant docked at Philadelphia. He wrote the Last Grain Race describing his voyage around Cape Horn on this ship. All of it goes on to say that he always had the travel bug in him. He was also the Travel Editor for The Observer.
 

During the Second World War, he was part of the Black Watch (an infantry battalion from the Royal Regiment of Scotland) and Special Boat Service (Special Forces unit of the British Royal Navy). He was captured in a raid off the coast of Sicily in 1942 and was imprisoned at Chieti and then at Fontanellato, near Parma. Later he managed to escape with other British prisoners. He met his wife, Wanda, a Slovenian who helped him to hide. However he was captured yet again and sent to a camp in Germany and stayed there until he was released at the end of the war. The book, Love and War in the Apennines is an account of his war experiences in Italy. He was also awarded a Military Cross for his participation in the raid.
