Synopsis:

THE SHARP END is a unique and engrossing study of the actual human experience of Allied front line soldiers in World War II. We learn about training, discipline and morale; what life was like in the combat zone, what the soldier ate, where he sheltered and how he slept We learn about his beliefs, his fears, the threats he faced and, most starkly of all, his chances of survival. A well as a brilliantly revealing analysis, John Ellis gives us the testimony of individual participants - of the men who faced the wretched discomforts and horrors of campaigning, from sodden foxholes in France to the fly-blown nothingness of the African desert: from freezing mountain-tops in Italy to the sweltering heat and claustrophobia of Asian jungles. THE SHARP END is an essential and unparalled account of the unknown soldier's daily life in the most destructive war in human history
