Walter Stephen provides an uninhibited look at the misery and toil
of World War I through a collection of twelve diverse stories.
Providing a Scottish perspective, he takes a look at tales from
home and abroad with scepticism, delving deeper to unveil the
unencumbered truth. Recalling Siegfried Sassoon’s words, Stephen
reveals the failures of those in command as the Great War became
known as A Dirty Swindle. The varied accounts chronicle the
progress of troops from recruitment to training to the frontline,
as well as enlightening historians to a side of Field Marshal Haig
never seen before.
