Walter Tull’s Scrapbook, by Michaela Morgan, has been described as an “excellent book” in Carousel: The Guide to Children’s Books. “Written as a fictional…

…first person account, this is a fascinating read, with carefully researched family photographs and well-selected historical images. The imaginative design makes it even more attractive to look at.”

Walter Tull’s Scrapbook is a true story that brings alive a man who lived outside the limitations of his age – from Walter’s childhood in an orphanage through his footballing years at Spurs and Northampton to the Western Front, highlighting the Christmas Day Truce of 1914, Walter’s officer training – pipe, moustache and all! – ending with his death on the Somme, his memorials and his legacy.
