Both of these books are new additions to the shelves of the Wingham Pub- lic Library. ILL MET BY MOONLIGHT by W. Stanley Moss On the 26th of April 1944, Major- General Karl Kreipe of the 22nd. Pan- zer Grenadier Division, commander of the German forces on the island of Crete, left his H. Q., for his personal quarters a short distance away, But General Knipe never arrived at his villa, Instead he rode In his car past twenty-two of his military poets, re- ceiving full salutes from the guards,— and with the gun of a kidnapper pressed closely into his side, His ab- spectacular capture of the Second World War, and the exploit extracted the grudging admiration of the Ger- mans, in addition to exciting the praise of the whole Allied Press. The expedition was led by Major "Paddy" Leigh-Fermor and the author (then Captain Moses of the Coldstream Guards), and it was carried out mainly for psychological effect on the enemy, in showing that their most exalted military men could not rest secure even when surrounded by their own forces.
