Bookbot

By Bernard Adams

This author was the first British soldier to publish his wartime memoirs during the First World War. His work, written during convalescence after being wounded, offers a unique record of eight months at the front with a Welsh Battalion. It stands as the only such account published in book form while the conflict was still raging. The author's portrayal of the horrors of war is marked by raw honesty, providing invaluable insight into the realities of the time.
