A Rare Find,

This review is from: Generals Die In Bed: A Story from the Trenches (Hardcover)
I feel that there is a shortage of good books regarding WWI. This is a down-to-earth book that shares the experience of one Canadian soldier before, during the war and going home. The book, the soldier's actual diary, is gritty and truthful. For some readers, portions may be too graphic of the uncomfortable living conditions and war horrors described. The author shares details of military life, including the vast differences between officers and lower ranking men, a very important aspect of how the military was organized during WWI, adding to the misery of the lower ranks.
The book is not laborious to read, which can be the case regarding diaries. If you want the truthful viewpoint of a WWI soldier then this book would be a good choice. |
