Always a Commando: The Life of Singapore Army Pioneer Clarence Tan

Best known for his role in helping to establish the Singapore Armed Forces Commando Formation and as the unit’s first commanding officer, Lieutenant-Colonel (Retired) Clarence Tan was born on his family’s rubber plantation, just ten months before the Japanese invasion of British Malaya in 1941. As with those of his generation, his life spans the dramatic, often tumultuous years of Singapore’s evolution from a primarily rural British colony to the world class cosmopolis it is today. From leading a platoon during racial riots in Singapore to searching for communist insurgents and Indonesian infiltrators in the jungles of Malaysia during the Emergency and the Confrontation, LTC (Rtd) Tan was part of both the British and Malaysian armies before becoming a pioneer officer in Singapore’s defence force. For as surely as there are makers of history, there are those too who are made by history. Always A Commando is at once a compelling chronicle of one man’s life from kampong kid to red beret and a rich evocation of the country he served through turbulent and uncertain times.

Dad Abroad: One man’s journey as a trailing spouse and stay-at-home dad

Thomas A. Squire was a regular guy doing a regular job when his far from regular wife gave him a call with some news. By the end of that five-minute conversation, he had decided to leave his regular job and follow his wife on a posting to Ho Chi Minh City and San Francisco – as a trailing spouse cum stay-at-home dad. Dad Abroad is a light-hearted sharing of a journey that is not usually travelled by men. This book covers the highs and lows, the foibles and contemplations of a regular guy as he navigates new countries, hangs with the kids, mingles with the mums, submits more completely to domestic chores, and tries his best to avoid isolation and talking about nappy changes … and his search for meaning and “flow” in the process.

The Tyrant and the Squire

Deep in the Crusades, Tom has run away from home to discover what the noble life of a knight is really like. But now that his dreams have come true and he has been knighted, all is not as rosy as he'd hoped. Terry Jones is known for his work with Monty Python, his stories for children (which won him the Children's Book Award) and his medieval books. In The Tyrant and the Squire he uses his inimitable comic imagination and originality to combine all three of these elements and create a perfect story for children and grown-ups alike. The Tyrant and the Squire is a glorious adventure from one of the UK's beloved comic performers.
