Also known as
Leo Kessler
Renowned British military historian and novelist, Charles Whiting fought with the British and American armies in 1944 and 1945. He has turned his first-hand experience fighting in the European Theatre of WWII into over 300 best selling books under a number of pen-names (and some actually using his own). In December of 2006, he celebrated his 80TH birthday with his wife Gill, and 80 close friends near his home in York.
