Confabulation of a War Baby
By W. H. Hall

From the gritty streets of post-war Montreal to the tense frontlines of Cold War Europe, Confabulation of a War Baby weaves a compelling tapestry of adventure, camaraderie, and resilience.

Follow Bill MacLeod, a young Canadian with a turbulent past, as he navigates the world of Canadian military service during a time of global uncertainty. Orphaned and shaped by the harsh realities of Montreal's slums, Bill’s journey takes him through a unique Canadian Army program that promises education and opportunity.

Through gripping scenes set in Europe, Africa, and beyond, Bill finds himself in the heart of historical events—from NATO’s Cold War stand-off, to the Congo Crisis. Along the way, he crosses paths with unforgettable characters: Hermann Wegman, a former Luftwaffe pilot turned pharmaceutical pioneer; Clive Morgan, an RAF bomber commander turned agricultural leader; and Klaus Neuman, an East German officer torn between duty and freedom.

Rich with authenticity and drawn from the author’s own experiences, Confab! offers a poignant exploration of friendship, loyalty, and the search for purpose amid the chaos of a changing world.
