The Middle Parts of Fortune Somme and Ancre
ISBN: 9781599868516 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. War is waged by men; not by beasts, or by gods. It is a peculiarly human activity. To call it a crime against mankind is to miss at least half its significance; it is also the punishment of a crime. That raises a moral question, the kind of problem with which the present age is disinclined to deal. Perhaps some future attempt to provide a solution for it may prove to be even more astonishing than the last. While this book is a record of experience on the Somme and Ancre fronts, with an interval behind the lines, during the latter half of the year 1916; and the events described in it actually...

"The finest and noblest book of men and war that I have ever read."--Ernest Hemingway "I am sure it is the book of books so far as the British Army is concerned."--Lawrence of Arabia "A unique and extraordinary novel"--William Boyd First published privately in 1929 as The Middle Parts of Fortune, Her Privates We is the novel of the Battle of the Somme told from the perspective of Bourne, an ordinary private. A raw and shockingly honest portrait of men engaged in war, "that peculiarly human activity," the original edition was subject to "prunings and excisions"...

Frederic Manning, the author of this book, which is also known as Her Privates We, was a well regarded Australian writer and poet who settled in the United Kingdom in the early years of the 20th century.
