James Kilpatrick tells the story of the British 'Tommy' as he goes off to France and gets his first taste of war. Told through the letters of the soldiers themselves, this little book is full of tales of horror, excitement, bravery and much humour. This is how the men on the front dealt with the terrible task ahead of them. A fascinating read, through the eyes of those who were there.
