Roger Kent


Biography

Writer of fiction on mainly WW2 subjects. Academically trained in Southern England, but learnt so much more on my travels, which furthered my passion for languages; Spanish, French,German, Italian and Russian. Classic American car enthusiast, esp 1960-1975 models, Lover of 60's and early 70's music esp The Doors, (yes, I saw Jim!) Hendrix (saw him too!) Creedence, Alice Cooper, just an old rocker at heart.
