Opis

John Lewis-Stempel reveals what motivated British officers, facing an average life expectancy of six weeks once they reached the frontline. He shows the life they led in the trenches, how they kept up the spirits of their men, & how they tried to behave with honour in a world where their codes of conduct were being shot to pieces.
