Talk:Guadalcanal Diary (book)

Latest comment: 15 years ago by 72.146.52.5 in topic Huh?

I have just started reading a copy of this book, and was discussing it with someone at work. We were wondering something about the author, Richard Tregaskis, and thought I'd look here on Wikipedia for a biography. However, there is no entry for him, only his book. If anyone has info on him, it would be great to create a biographical page for him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.228.123.241 (talkcontribs) 17:31, 25 July 2006

Richard Tregaskis now has his own Wikipedia page. it's been nearly two years since your post, so i suspect you may have found it already. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Tregaskis Faucett (talk) 17:24, 24 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Huh? edit

It is strange and rather dopey to say practically nothing about a book before embarking on the criticisms of it.
That is rarther like writing about the book Gone With the Wind by embarking on discussions about how racist it is (portraying happy slaves) and how historically inaccurate it is.72.146.52.5 (talk) 08:46, 17 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
