Description
Harry Drinkwater's War is a personal account of his experiences in World War I. Despite being told he was too short for service, Harry joined up and found himself in the trenches of the Somme. He survived unimaginable violence and recorded his experiences in secret diaries. The book offers a unique perspective on one man's struggle to maintain his humanity in the face of extreme hardship. With wry humor, exhaustion, and resignation, Harry recounts his time in the war, including his officer's commission, trench raids, and the awarding of the Military Cross. Never before published, this memoir is a moving testament to Harry Drinkwater's resilience and determination.
