""Here is a writing which is of the war, and therefore differs from
all writings which can only be about the war. It conveys to the
reader an almost paralyzing sense of wonder at the steadfastness of
Britain's military traditions, put to an unexampled test. It shows
how marvellously well a soldier may learn his business in
advance-when his business is to die. Concerning one of the most
noteworthy accomplishments of the arms of Britain, there will
survive in print no more compelling and convincing narrative than
this, the utterance of one whose trade was fighting and not
writing."" This book is part of the World War One Centenary series;
creating, collating and reprinting new and old works of poetry,
fiction, autobiography and analysis. The series forms a
commemorative tribute to mark the passing of one of the world's
bloodiest wars, offering new perspectives on this tragic yet
fascinating period of human history. Each publication also includes
brand new introductory essays and a timeline to help the reader
place the work in its historical context.
