The voices of those who actually lived through the hell of blood
and pain during the Great War have fallen silent. But every now and
then a treasure is unearthed - a secret memoir. Walter's War is one
such book. Written without his family's knowledge and not
discovered till after his death, this is the gripping account of an
ordinary soldier, Walter Young, who battled through Ypres, Loos,
and many of the key engagements, and was awarded the Military Medal
for gallantry at Bullecourt. Although he never talked about the
war, his writings vividly capture the mixture of boredom and terror
that were so familiar to the soldiers on both sides. No one knew
that he had captured his experiences so accurately but this book
gives us an extraordinary and moving insight into what life in the
trenches was really like.
