Description: Frank Richards' account of the horrors of World War One is probably the most celebrated of all memoirs to be written by a private soldier. At the outbreak of hostilities he was a reserved belonging to the Royal Welch Fusiliers, which he had first joined in 1901 and served with in the Colours for eight years, mainly in India and Burma. At the beginning of August 1914 he volunteered for the Second Battalion which was due to leave for France and was to be the first Infantry Battalion to enter Rouen. He first saw action at Vicq and served throughout the war, his bravery earning him the D.C.M. and M.M. 'Old Soldiers' like Frank Richards were hard professional men, a credit to their Regiments and Country, and their type is strongly portrayed in the narrative. This classic book will always be a source of interest to anyone interested in World War One and, having been out of print for some years, its re-issue will be welcomed by manyHardback English Text
