Words from the Front
This poignant firsthand account of war on the Western Front during
the Great War was written by the colonel of the 1st Battalion of
the Royal Irish Rifles a famous regiment of the British Army with
its origins in Ulster. This is an intimate narrative of the
experience of trench warfare with its attacks, raids, skirmishes,
the slow loss of valued officers and men and the very debilitating
matter of existing within the muddy confines of trenches and
dugouts perpetually subject to the menace of the snipers bullet or
the barrage of hostile artillery. Filled with detail and anecdotes,
this is a fine view of a senior regimental officer's war told in
letter form and an interesting addition to any library of the
history of the Great War and the war the infantry knew.
