A stunning new edition of this modern classic of World War One,
featuring a new introduction by the author and insightful
testimonies from soldiers, to commemorate the centenary of the
Battle of the Somme. Told in the voice of Private Tommo Peaceful,

memories of his family and his village life - by no means as
tranquil as it appeared. Full of vivid detail and engrossing
atmosphere, leading to a dramatic and moving conclusion, Private
Peaceful is both a compelling love story and a deeply moving
account of the First World War. Extra material: - Introduction by
Michael Morpurgo - Inspiration letter by Michael Morpurgo -
Background on the execution of British soldiers in WW1 for
cowardice, including personal testimony from soldiers
