Julian Horrocks

Julian Horrocks is a debut author with a lifelong passion for history, especially twentieth-century history. Aged 66, he is a lawyer by profession, married with two grown-up daughters and lives in North Yorkshire. He never had any ambition to write a book but was prompted to do so after reading Alanbrooke's war diary which left him intrigued. Whilst Alanbrooke is undoubtedly a minor figure in twentieth-century history when compared to the likes of Churchill, Roosevelt, Hitler and Stalin, that does not make him any less interesting. In truth, quite the reverse: he is a fascinating figure who makes a great subject for a book.
