John Harvey's novel "A Novel of Courage" is based on the experiences of his own father, who served with the London Fire Brigade during the 1940s. Like many other Londoners, 15-year-old Jack Riley was evacuated to the countryside to escape the city's bombardment. However, Jack managed to escape farm life and return to London, where he joined his father, who was an auxiliary fireman with "Blue Watch." Jack's father worked for the fire service as a bicycle messenger, and Jack had the opportunity to experience the London Blitz firsthand as he worked alongside him. The novel follows Jack's journey as he navigates the challenges of farm life and the dangers of the Blitz, while also developing a deep sense of courage and resilience.
