Charles Yale Harrison was a young American who served with the Canadian Expeditionary Force during World War One.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

'... a little runt, ain't he?'

'Yeah, but he'll never die in a lousy trench like Brownie and them did.'

'God, no. Generals die in bed.'

'Oh, the generals have a bloody good time fifty miles behind the line. Hincky, dinky, parley voo.'

A stark and poignant story of a young man sent to fight on the Western Front. Here is where soldiers fight and die, entombed in mud, surrounded by rats and lice, forced to survive on insufficient rations.

Acclaimed as one of 'the best of the war books' by the New York Evening Standard when it was originally published in 1930, Generals Die in Bed is a truly unforgettable read.
