A very powerful memoir from a young man who served in the British Army during the First World War. If only Mr. Trump had the capability of reading it, who knows, he may come to understand what war means to those who volunteer or are required to take part in active service for their country.
I recommend it to anyone who thinks war is a fine thing.
