Biographies

'In this war there is nothing more terrible than the truth.'

In this poignant personal narrative, Bernard Adams provides an authentic account of a soldier's life on the front lines during World War I. He relates the boredom and weariness of life in the trenches, the fellowships formed between the soldiers who fought, and the sudden and shocking terrors of battle.

This exceptionally detailed account covers everything from the art of sniping to the actions of a working party and the nature of patrols.

In a tragic turn of events, the author died from his wounds before the book was published. His work stands as a testament to the many soldiers who gave their lives in that terrible conflict.
