Short first-person accounts by American, Canadian and British soldiers: a dispatcher’s experiences, bringing in a sniper, a Marine’s story, the Verdun sector and the Ypres salient, a machine gunner, the fall of Cantigny, the retreat from Mons, the ammunition train and the hospital. Their tone is that of 1919, proud and often bitter.
Raw, unpolished testimony that brings the ordinary soldier’s war close. Download the free EPUB.
