Far more than an anthology, FOR KING AND COUNTRY is Brian
MacArthur's attempt to write a history of the First World War by
drawing on the writings of those who were present at the events
they describe. Those writings will be drawn from a broad range of
sources: from, most obviously, the officers and men who served on
the western front at the Somme and elsewhere, accounts of fear and
tedium, horror and occasional joy; also from those were left behind
on the home front to wait for news of their loved ones. As well as
letters, diary entries and memoir extracts, the book will also
include the songs sung in the trenches by the men at the front;
there are poems too, the less well known alongside the familiar.
The material reproduced will be linked by Brian MacArthur's
commentary and notes to create a seamless and movingly immediate
narrative of the First World War.
