Description

The Battle of Neuve Chapelle, 10th March 1915, was a day that would leave an indelible mark on William Linton Andrews. A single shot marked the beginning of a hellish barrage from 480 guns and howitzers, shrouding the German trenches in smoke and dust. As a journalist, Andrews witnessed firsthand the horrors of war, serving with the 1/4th Black Watch battalion in France. He saw action at Festubert, Loos, the Somme, and Third Ypres, emerging unscathed from each battle. His unique perspective as a journalist allows him to recount his experiences with remarkable detail and clarity. This account offers a rare glimpse into the life of a soldier during World War I, providing a personal and poignant exploration of one man's journey through the trenches.
